gillmaus - OPEN SOURCE PROJECTS!

FATGamesPUP ist ein CDR ISO-Image. Es ist bootfähig und läuft auf den meisten (vor allem älteren) Computern tadellos (basiert auf Puppy Linux 2.16).
Primär ist es vollgepackt mit recht harmlosen Spielen für Kinder aber auch Erwachsene. Die harmlosen Spiele sind leicht zu starten. Wenn Ihr Kind etwas "schlauer" ist können Sie das gamelauncher-Icon löschen, um den Zugang zu brutaleren Spielen zu erschweren/verhindern.

Wenn die CD bootet(was etwas dauert...), können Kinder nichts an ihrem Computer kaputt machen!

Engl. Beschreibung:

I built a puplet to reuse my old computers as gaming-place and educational suite for my kids. Though there are already some OS of that purpose, I never felt confident with 'em. So now I'm thankful to give something back to the great Puppy community.
It's around 470MB and suitable for adults and the youth..
This is not any kind of "offical" release. Its just some privat fun and really helpful for the kids. I tried to update it to Puppy 2.17.1 but afterwards the cd-remaster failed, maybe I'll try again later. Lots of games I wanted to add never managed to compile. Might be the libc6-thing and other weaknesses of 2.16. Some games are older versions. All games have been tested on different machines and ran out-of-the-box with vesa (On 266Mhz-128MB some games are slow, 400Mhz-256MB ok, 500Mhz-192MB ok, 466Mhz-128MB ok, 1,6Ghz-3GB wow). Sometimes some configuration (screen, joystick, language, ...) has to be done for some games to work "smoother". Some games take a long time to load, I suggest a install on HD. There are no 3D-hardware dependent games included. There are still some bugs of course. Please forgive my non-conform way of installing the games. I added some information to the gamelauncher where applicable.
My children really enjoy the easy-access icons for their suitable games on the desktop. All non-kid games are launched by the gamelauncher-icon. Just delete this icon to protect your children from accidently watching head-chopping actions....
So, which games are included? First, I added these Tools: MC, Joystick-Sidewinder.
