There are collection of small puzzle games:
http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/puzzles/

They compiled without any changes for N900. Only one of 27 games needs two button mouse, all are very playable. Some uses keyboard, which might be better to implement some other way.

In this page, there are FreeRunner port, which uses launcher, so it doesn't add 27 new icons to application menu:

So, who wants make and maintain this port?

Hmm, I'm sure I had these installed on my n810 a while ago. Is it possible that someone is already doing this?

I've now uploaded sgt-puzzles for maemo5 extras-devel:

http://maemo.org/packages/view/sgt-puzzles/

It includes a new python-hildon based launcher:



Yeah, that is rubberband scrolling icon grid - if just the main grid would allow submenus, the whole excersize would be unnecessary.

Still needs:

1) An icon for the application manager
2) Tune some of the games to be more touch friendly (one game needs right mouse button click, entering numbers in the sudoku is tricky..)
3) Tune the launcher (those grey background areas are ugly..)
4) Perhaps port the launcher to C - just installing python for the launcher might be a bit too much.

Oh, and for some real commitment, a graphics designer to improve the graphics of the puzzles would really be needed!

Ehh grahpics are fine... same as anywhere else ;)

As for needing the right buttn... maybe check the pilot port of them. I'm not sure but it was either a long press or just switched between states.

Second upload done, now promoted to extras-testing:

http://maemo.org/packages/package_in.../8605-1maemo2/

Now, the following controls have been implemented:

right mouse = control + click
middle mouse = shift + click

Slightly suboptimal, especially if playing with stylus.

Test it and if you like it thumb it up

Hmm considered using the proximity sensor?

Anyway thanks for this. Can't wait to try it.

As soon as it stops doing un-attended apt updates upon connection establish.
