Eat The Whistle re-released as GPL
« on: August 28, 2003, 06:55:32 PM »
As posted on ANN ...

"The 3.0 version of the soccer game Eat The Whistle has been rereleased as GPL. The game has been almost fully rewritten to be portable and will be available in the next days for Win32, MacOSX, Linux x86, AmigaOS 68k and MorphOS, you can find it here:

http://etw.sourceforge.net/

The Amiga version requires a GFX card, AHI, 040 or better and SDL installed.
"

"After about 5 years from the commercial amiga release I've chosen to distribute ETW again, in the past years in my spare time I've ported it to SDL, so that it can runs in the wider range of platforms possible. I've also added a few features and the possibility to make matches through TCP/IP (with a server), but I've not had enough time to make all the new stuff bug free. I hope that this release will help Eat The Whistle to grow as developers and users and become a successfull opensource game!"

There are still no binaries available for Amiga and MorphOS,
I guess they'll be available in the next days. Failing that,
there are already  makefiles available for both
platforms here:

http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/etw/etw/

so it should be reasonably simple to compile them. Since
the game is now GPL'ed, it would be great if also the
original Amiga version would be available.
