Debian Junior Project
Summary
games-gl
Debian Jr. 3D Games (hardware acceleration required)

These games all use OpenGL libraries. They will not work without decent 3D graphics cards providing hardware-accelerated OpenGL.

While armagetron and gltron are different interpretations of the game depicted in the classic 3D-animated movie "Tron", Tux Racer is an all-original made-for-Linux 3D racing game. Unlike the standard blood-and-guts fare in the 3D games universe, all of these games are suitable for children.

Description

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
