Debian Games racing packages

This is a multiplayer flying saucer racing game, made for Assembly 2006 game competition. It is a great and fun game for the family with up to four players. Coming with astonishing 3d rendered graphics.

The rules are simple: you ride a light cycle (a kind of motorbike that can only turn 90 degrees at a time, leaves a wall behind and cannot be stopped) and have to avoid running into walls while at the same time you have to try to get your opponent to run into them.

The idea is based on the Disney movie from 1982 called "Tron". If you ever wanted to take a try at one of those speed demons features in the movie, this is your chance.

Armagetron Advanced can be played against AI opponents, against other humans over the network, or a mixture of both.

Bloboats is an arcade-like boat racing game in the hybrid spirit of Mario-like platform jumpers and elasto mania / xmoto.

The journey starts from a place called Tutorial, somewhere in the United States, and somehow the player ends up in the famous HV-Arena of Helsinki. During the trip a number of MS Enterprises are saved, luckily, from the hands of the terrible Tentacle Monsters of an Unknown Master, who actually is your dad. Or then ain't. :-)

Collect herrings and other goodies while sliding down the hill, but avoid fish bones.

This game is based on the GPL version of the famous game TuxRacer.

You must have working 3D acceleration or this game will run quite slowly.

Pink Pony is a Tron­-like multiplayer racing­ game. You control little ponies that leave a trail of flowers everywhere they step. You have to evade these trails and force other ponies into them. The last pony standing wins the game.

OpenGL 2.0 is needed for Pink Pony to work.

It features multiplayer (on the same computer), tournaments, high scores, replays, 6 tracks (really 12, because each track can be used Normal or Reverse), 9 cars, a basic robot player, 3 different levels of difficulty, and a music player (it can play the .ogg files locating in the musics directory).

Your objective is to drive your car along an obstacle course. Success depends on total control of the car. If you want to master it, try to have the laws of physics work with you, not against you.

The game was formerly known as Sturmbahnfahrer.

Karts. Nitro. Action! SuperTuxKart is a 3D open-source arcade racer with a variety of characters, tracks, and modes to play. The aim is to create a game that is more fun than realistic, and provide an enjoyable experience for all ages.

Discover the mystery of an underwater world, or drive through the jungles of Val Verde and visit the famous Cocoa Temple. Race underground or in a spaceship, through a rural farmland or a strange alien planet. Or rest under the palm trees on the beach, watching the other karts overtake you. But don't eat the bananas! Watch for bowling balls, plungers, bubble gum, and cakes thrown by your opponents.

You can do a single race against other karts, compete in one of several Grand Prix, try to beat the high score in time trials on your own, play battle mode against the computer or your friends, and more! For a greater challenge, race online against players from all over the world and prove your racing prowess!
