About TuxMath:
Tux of Math Command is an educational math tutor for children starring Tux, the Linux Penguin. It is graphical and requires SDL. It is copyrighted under the Gnu General Public License (included with the source code) and is freely distributable under the Gnu GPL's requirements.
Gameplay is loosely based on the classic arcade game "Missile Command."
As Tux the Linux Penguin, the player must defend cities from incoming
comets. Each comet has a math equation on it, which the player must answer to destroy it before it hits a city.
TuxMath uses the Simple DirectMedia Layer library (libSDL), which means it will be portable among Windows, MacOS, BeOS, Linux and other UNIXes.
The game can be played with the keyboard, or any input device that the system sees as a mouse-pointer (mouse, trakball, touchpad or touchscreen monitor).
The project's lead developer is Bill Kendrick of New Breed Software. I'm helping with the BeOS port.
