Hi ports --Attached is a new port, games/commander-genius, a modern interpreter for the Commander Keen games. I'm hoping someone can help push this over the hump: Commander Genius lets you download some games, and it does so successfully, but fails to extract them. However, if you manually extract the games to the correct place, the games will work (everything is under ~/.CommanderGenius).
--- pkg/DESCR: Commander Genius is an open-source clone of Commander Keen (1-6, Dreams) which allows you to play these episodes and some of the mods made for them. The main goal of Commander Genius is to copy the original gameplay feeling as much as possible, and extend it further so you get a native implementation with even more features like: - Mod Support with nice extras - OpenGL Acceleration - SDL 2.0 Support - New graphical effects - Multiplayer Support (Up to four players) - High Quality Packs which make the game look better, provide better sounds and even music - Ingame Menu for vorticons Keen as well as a new HUD - Named save slots - Unrestricted Joystick Support - and much more ---I tested this with Commander Keen 1 and Commander Keen 4, which the engine allows you to download when you launch it. And it works OK (at least on amd64).
Help/Comments/OKs/Cluebats welcome and appreciated. ~Brian
