GamniX

Set in a land, where common physics apply but everything else looks different.

You are Tiny, a little, technophile guy with a ray cutter, a gripping device, a bad habit and

a fine attitude towards the world. But now your nemesis Big stole the only

heritage your grandpa left you: A fine pair of white, fine rib underpants and

he‘s surely up to no good. Why else should he climb that haunted, ancient mountain

in the desert. Where noone goes…

So load up that raygun and rope device and take your annoying and jabbering backpack

to accompany you. It‘s always been good use to your gramps.

Run, jump, drag, shove and laser your way up that mountain, get back those underpants!

Features:

• Runs on our own gear, the ScApe Engine

• Dynamic hatch on environment and in shadows

• Realistic custom physics

• Tooling around with raygun and grappling hook

• All textures completely analogue drawn and handmade

• popping sounds

• … a talking backpack

Whichever way you look at it, consumers want to be able to play the latest commercial computer games.

You possibly have no reason to complain. What was once considered a shortcoming of this versatile platform has certainly been transformed into one of its strengths. Let us then have a look at the top 10 guilty pleasures you can indulge in on Linux:

The seventh beta for 1.8 is ready. Please note that due to a critical bug fix only versions >=1.7.14 are allowed on the development multiplayer server. For more details about this and celebrating the new release please visit this forum thread.
As with the last releases, we continue to offer two versions of changelogs: a rather nice to read players changelog that only includes changes every player will probably notice and the (rather) complete changelog with (almost) all the details, which is likely to cause a serious headache…
At the moment the Windows package and the MacOSX packages are ready. You can find them at the download page. Once the others are done you can find them at the download page, too. Please keep in mind that it is a development release which might include quite many bugs. If you find one, report it.
