typhoon_2001 (a freeware game)

Typhoon 2001 is a freeware game inspired by both the Atari Jaguar
hit game Tempest 2000 and the arcade hit Tempest. It takes ideas and
concepts from both games, but rearranges and changes them. A few new
ideas have been implemented as well.

To run the Linux version of Typhoon 2001, you will need hardware OpenGL
video acceleration support for your X server.

This game is not open source: it's distributed binary-only. The
SlackBuild simply installs the binary distribution files in the
appropriate places, and adds a launcher script in /usr/bin, which adds
support for per-user game settings. The directory $HOME/.typhoon_2001/
will be created the first time the game is run.
