HI all,
I've been working hard on getting game submenus realised, as atleast 2
people here wanted them (Tibbs and Wart), and I must say that I'm a
bit disappointed about the lack of feedback.
So please do a:
rpm -ivh
http://people.atrpms.net/~hdegoede/games-menus-0.2-1.fc7.noarch.rpm
Click on your menu goto games and enjoy. Also we should start fixing
our packages for games which show up in a strange place and start
filing bugs against other peoples packages, again for more info on how
to properly use the Categories field see:

I've actually been using this for the past week on two separate
machines. It's _greatly_ improved the usability of the Games menu,
though I had to update a few of my packages to get them located in the
right category. :)
Good to hear!
I'm left with two that I'm not sure how to categorize:
neverball: This is a 'roll the ball around a maze and avoid the traps'
type of game. it's not really a board game, so maybe 'logic & puzzles'
would be the best fit?
Yes good question, I need to fix trackballs too, I gess logic and
puzzles is the best choice, shall we put both of them (trackballs and
neverball) there?
xpilot: it's like a multiplayer version of asteroids, on steroids. It
has the visual appearance of an arcade game, but much more complicated
gameplay.
Arcade is very crowded, so I would say action. My rule kinda is:
If it isn't a straight forward clone of an arcade game -> action.
The mean reason for this is because for a while I've focused on
packaging true arcade clones and even with games-menus installed my
arcade menu has scroll arrows (I still need to recategorize some
packages, hopefully that will help).
Regards,
Hans
