I've added Parchis40 to the list. The packager is of course Muggins. I left xreverse in the dark, just because we got already jester...

Thanks muggins

Here is one to die for, Classic Breakout

with sound !!
This should make it to the top ten list.

Here's another flash game "A-Blast", It reminds me of Xsoldier but with excellent sounds and very addictive

Thank you ttuuxxx

I have added the breakout game as nr 8. There was a better looking breakout game in the top10, but the physics works better with the new one. Also, only 12kb

A-blast is also nice, but with the same size as Xgalaga, I wouldn't call it a true mini-game. - well, I guess we could disagree on that one

I just installed the Seahaven card game in Dingo that I downloaded from this forum as a pet.

I can't figure out how to reset the gaming record.

Is it possible to restore the gaming record back to zero, and if so how?

Just delete /root/.seahavensave (its a hidden file)

Thanks ttuuxxx.

Now I can bury my past and start life over with a simple deletion!!

I did look all over for documentation, including Sourceforge, and couldn't find any. I don't know much about games either.

This Forum continues to be a splendid help source. I am indeed appreciative of the caring, thoroughness, and cleverness of its many contributors. For me it is an integral part of the enjoyment I get from using Puppy. Thanks to all.

No problem Jackie its just a basic learning curve:) Just keep in mind for future settings most save a file to root/. <--- hidden location followed by a name, sometimes its a file and sometimes its a hidden folder. Just remember you can always just reinstall the program.

so feel free to delete away

Oh ya try not to delete the defaults that come with puppy like /root/.xinitrc <-- if you delete that one, you won't be able to boot puppy.

This is just some info for anyone trying to get Frozen Bubble to work in Puppy 4.1.2.
I tried unsuccessfully to get it working and found, from the game website, that it will not work with the later version of Perl.
Since it worked with Puppy 3.01, and not the newer version, I checked and Perl has quietly been updated to a newer release.
I am not sure if the older version of Perl can be succesfully installed on Puppy 4.1.2 to replace the newer one.

The version I posted above works fine with 4.1, so it should work with 4.1.2. So maybe try that one

TTUUXXX,

Are we talking about the same game here?
I can find no reference of you posting anything pertaining to Frozen Bubble.
If you point me in the right direction, I am willing to give it a try.

Lol too many open threads, I must have around 30 forum threads open, talking about multitasking:) it was on another page, and it wasn't frozen bubble it was Xbubble lol

Frozen bubble is just crazy I have all sdl libs minus 1 perlsdl that uses mesa/OpenGl. I personally have tried the mesa OpenGl path before and its just a waste of time. Sorry but xbubble is pretty close and its a lot smaller

I have Puppy 4.0 and downloaded the PokerTH.zip file and unzipped it in my applications folder. clicked on the pokerth.sh. It runs GREAT!!!!

http://www.pokerth.net/
download section for 0.6.3
click on PokerTH-0.6.3-linux.zip
No Installer: just run "./pokerth.sh" (32bit)

I'm not affiliated with them. I just enjoy the game.
