HED | Hacker Evolution Duality
Hacker Evolution Duality demo always segfaults even when you hit ESC and press `yes' to exit!
I had to start the game with strace to find out what the hell is wrong!
The game is totally inconsistent. Once it can not find the text file that should be displayed as your first message. Another time it does find it. In addition, the game throws lots of error messages claiming that it can not run certain MP3 files. I do a $ gnome-open /path/to/mentioned/file.mp3 and it works like a charm.
The game also looks for many device files like:
...
/dev/js13
/dev/js14
/dev/js15
/dev/js16
...
Honestly, I found the demo not worthy of debugging a hell of segfaults. If you intend to build a good game for Linux, please consider those guys / girls who rely on x86_64 systems!
Enjoy the map and the grid, I didn't even bother to make a score.
