Summary
Arcade
This metapackage will install arcade games suitable, in the
opinion of the contributors to the Debian Jr. project, for children
of all ages. Mastering most of these games requires dexterity
and cognitive skills usually developed only in the older children
(around ages 5 to 8). But the youngest children may enjoy watching
older players, or just poking randomly at the controls, depending
on the game.
The list to the right includes various software projects which are of some interest to the Debian Junior Project. Currently, only a few of them are available as Debian packages. It is our goal, however, to include all software in Debian Junior which can sensibly add to a high quality Debian Pure Blend.
For a better overview of the project's availability as a Debian package, each head row has a color code according to this scheme:
If you discover a project which looks like a good candidate for Debian Junior
to you, or if you have prepared an unofficial Debian package, please do not hesitate to
send a description of that project to the Debian Junior mailing list

Heroes is similar to the "Tron" and "Nibbles" games of yore, but includes
many graphical improvements and new game features. In it, you must maneuver
a small vehicle around a world and collect powerups while avoiding obstacles,
your opponents' trails, and even your own trail.
Several styles of play are available, including "get-all-the-bonuses",
deathmatch, and "squish-the-pedestrians". All game styles can be played
in both single-player and two-player (split-screen) modes.
You should install the heroes-sound-effects package if you want sound effects,
and the heroes-sound-tracks package if you want background music in the game.
This version is linked against the GGI libraries. See heroes-sdl for a
Heroes version that is linked against the SDL libraries.

You control a space ship in a vertically scrolling window and shoot
enemies. If you kill the boss enemy which appears at the end of each stage,
or if you can survive till the boss enemy gets bored with you and escapes,
you can go to the next stage.
xsoldier has a unique feature --- the "not shooting" bonus. You can get
a pretty good score by not pressing the shoot button. After all, if the
game is a simple kill-everything and shooting is always a good thing, why

score, you need to kill all enemies with a minimum number of bullets.
