Thanks Ttuuxxx! Looks fun ... now the only thing is when will I get time to play it?

None of these links are up any longer.

I was looking for SDL_mixer-Smpeg and also sdl_gfx but can't seem to find them.I found the sdl_gfx.2.0.24.tar at their website, but have no idea how to install it.

Somebody's gotta make an app just for dependencies and libs...and find a reliable long-term place to host them for free.

Wow, this is awesome, I got it to work using muggins's .pets (the ones in the original post are expired links).

Works very well in Puppy 4.3.1.

I also tried it in Slacko 5.3.1 and Lucid 5.2.8, but it didn't work. Eldon is probably using 5.3.3.

Awesome game, I like it a lot.

edit: got it to work in 5.2.8 once, but I can't repeat what I did (I tried), not sure how I did it, but I had a bunch of other programs installed.
Also works fine on a fresh install of Slacko 5.3.1 but may not work if you have a lot of .pets installed (and one or more have conflicting code with the sdl .pet).
