hey muggins that needs to be place in zigberts 1mb or less games thread he has on here.
Also it should be included in the default puppy release, due to its size just try to shave it down a bit like 71kb lol I could see a lot of people liking it..

I did compress most things as much as possible but, now that you mention it, I might be able to find a few things to get it down by 70k.
By the way ttuuxxx, when you mention getting 10 in a row, if you check the images that come with each word, I've got a feeling the game is aimed at a particular age group...nudge nudge.

The maximum I can reduce it by is 20kbytes! So I'll just leave it as it is. It must have been brewskies all round yesterday as I was ditto!

I've had a look at the program. the binary delivered in the sources is staically linked which accounts for most of the size. I didn't have good luck at getting the sources to compile, but perhaps someone else would have netter luck. That should shave about 900KB off the size...
Meanwhile I kept looking for hangman and found an SDL version which may be more universal.

@Amigo,
most of the overhead is in the included graphics. In the .pet I uploaded the binary uses shared libraries, and only weighs in at 48kbytes. After I've stripped & upx'ed it's only 16k.
Are you going to upload the SDL version?
Edit: I just thought that maybe the binary is showing as static as it's been compressed with upx

What about an ncurses version, for those not suffering CLI-phobia?
Just extract to /, and run by entering hangit

This one is tcl-based. To reduce the size, I've removed the newer .gif icons, and kept the smaller originals, plus made it into a makeself self-extracting gzipped program.
Just extract to / & run by entering hangman
N.B. If you're using pup4, then you would need to install the pup3 tcl & tk .pets from the puppy ibiblio repository.

Sorry, Muggins -I think I got confused about which program I was talking about. Thanks for finding the others you posted about.
Here's a link to the one I found, which seems to be pretty nice. Yopu have to provide some sort of word list for it. I just used one of the lists from the aspell dictionary.

@Amigo,
I forgot about the ShiftyGames hangman game. I somehow thought I did a .pet of it, but a forum search finds nada...I must have got sidetracked by something else.
Anyway, I've now uploaded it in this thread.
