Heh. I'm wondering if we could see a port to maemo in the near future. THAT would be a hell of a game to play on a NIT.

Depending on how hard-coded the screen size is, this could be quite easy:

Runs fine on the N810 (apart from the screen size issue which does make actually playing difficult). This was pretty much a straight compile using preliminary debian packages(*) and libxpm4 from the maemo sdk repository.

just to make it clear: I'm not going to work on this, feel free to package...


*) preliminary debian package: http://kmuto.jp/b.cgi/debian/micropolis.htm

It would be seriously kick *** if someone did work on a Maemo port for this.
