Package: sopwith (1.7.1-3)

port of the 1980's side-scrolling WWI dogfighting game

For the nostalgic among you, I present sopwith.

This is an updated version of the 1980's game developed by David L. Clark of BMB Compuscience Canada - it has been adapted to run under *nix using the SDL toolkit. Poor graphics, stupid AI, and horrible sound await you. The gameplay is simple, addictive, and fun. A `side-scroller', you pilot your biplane across a static field, destorying enemy encampments and planes.

The upstream web site for this package is http://sdl-sopwith.sourceforge.net/
