It happens ...

[edoc]

BTW: Just got to actually opening the archive really late last night and it was empty.

[sullysat]

that's weird. okay.. I'll take a look at it today.. I probably did it wrong.. first archiving anything with puppy. I'll post here when I get it sorted out.

EDIT: Okay, there was a / in the file path that didn't belong there. NOW you should be able to just click the link and save. I tested it on windows and puppy and everything works. Please let me know when you get it downloaded properly so I know all this is working.

And I made sure the wallpapers are appropriate for all audiences. Again, sorry about that... in too big of a hurry I guess.

Talk to you soon,
Sully

thank you all for flash site links.

I found a classic game I really loved to play when I was a kid. It's "Frogger" http://www.thepcmanwebsite.com/media/frogger/frogger.shtml

Little sized games like Pacman runs smooth on my system other games like mario and sonic run very slow. I can't understand why some flash apps run very slow on my system.

World of Goo demo for Linux (tar.gz)

very playable and kid and Lobster friendly - free demo levels
If you just download it will create a directory in tmp (or you can select where you want it) and play

Hoshi saga is very cool. I tried to download but It doesn't work offline,maybe there is some protection.

Enjoy

I downloaded WorldOfGoo and untarred the archive using:

tar -xvzf filename.tar.gz

When I go to the folder that is created nothing I click on opens the game.

What step am I missing, please?

NOTE: I am using Puppy 4.12-Normal Frugal ext3

Mario madness returns, now running on puppy:

Mega Mario here:

edoc,

I'm not sure about the dependencies, but I had the same issue on a new install. After loading SDL libraries, it worked.

I'm still learning Puppy, the other thing was that I finally installed an NVidia driver and enabled direct rendering/3d accel? (I guess they are the same thing).

After those two items, Goo ran.

I'll take a new look at all of that - been in and out and all around with OpenGL and SDL so am no longer certain what is and isn't present!

The only SDL package needed for mega mario is this one:
http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/distributions/puppylinux/pet_packages-2/libsdl-1.2.9.pet
(Right Click -> Save Link Target as...)
After installing that it should run fine. Which SDL package did you install?

[dejan555]

SpideyLinux solved the same Mega Mario problem with installing additional SDL libraries, see here
