I would love to have that game - never had a chance to play it but it looks great on the youtube video of the OS2008 version!

I second this request. I was just thinking how it would be sweet it would be to have linerider then I bumped into this thread and remembered this game. Physics ftw!

It's been worked on. It's not ready for use yet, there's just some test code. It'll be good though. I'm not involved in any way with the coding, I just noticed and had a look at the development version.

So, relax, sit back, it'll come along nicely in a while I'm sure.

i have this working on my N900.........

install from repo (not sure which one)

run xterm and type numptyphysics


---------------------------------------------------------------------
to make shortcut to app:




On the N900, it is possible to run a terminal program like ‘top’ directly from the Desktop/Shortcut.
substitue numptyphysics for #APPNAME#


1. Use a text-editor to create a file with the following text:


[Desktop Entry]
Encoding=UTF-8
Version=0.1
Type=Application
Terminal=true
Name=#APPNAME#
Exec=/usr/bin/osso-xterm #APPNAME#
Icon=
X-Window-Icon=
X-HildonDesk-ShowInToolbar=true
X-Osso-Type=application/x-executable


2. Save the file as "#APPNAME#.desktop"

3. As root, copy the file to the ‘/usr/share/applications/hildon/’ directory. This will create an ugly blue application icon in the Application list.

4. To change icon:

1. Find/create a PNG image of dimension 48×48
2. Name the file #APPNAME#.png
3. Save file to /usr/share/icons/hicolor/48×48/hildon/ (you will need root access)
4. Modify the "#APPNAME#.desktop" file to include the following line. The right side should be the name of file without the .png

Save .desktop file and reboot to see the icon for the shortcut in the Application Menu.
If the icon does not show up, install a couple of apps from the Application Manager. This should update the icon-cache and display it.

is this still in testing ? when i launch it .. it only shows the accelometer test .. how to get to the levels ?

There is also an desktop file in /usr/share/applications/

and there is another png present somewhere.

its a mess.

ps. mine is working now but with problems no fullscreen etc.

enter = start/pause
left/right = change level
up key = restart
2 = menu


thats the controls ive figurde out

i saw a youtube vid of it but i cant seem to find out how to delete the lines i just created..i need to know that to roll the ball and keep it moving

get the red ball to the yellow star is the goal
