Does anyone else remember the old Linux games Slune, Balazar, and Arkanae?

Post by ylevental »

I started using Linux ten years ago and discovered those games in the software repos. Slune was a 3D game about medical ethics in Africa featuring a penguin, Balazar was an adventure game, and Arkanae was a RPG. I liked them because of the chill music and unique graphics.

Information about those games is available at http://www.lesfleursdunormal.fr/static/ ... ex_en.html, on the left hand side of the page. The download links don't exist anymore directly, but are preserved on archive.org. Compiling them would be quite hard, since most of the files are very outdated.

I have never heard Arkanae before, but I remember disliking Balazar because I couldn't figure it out :lol:
