No source? Now I can't compile it for windows. :(

Nice game. So far I have only used the tutorial, but I will keep it for when I am travelling and looking for something to pass the time.

Windows version is now available, you can thank LukeL for compiling it! Enjoy!

In the tutorial where it says to press the shift key, only the right shift key is recognised. Was this deliberate?

Yes. Well, sort of. I shall keep it in mind to allow the key bindings to be changed if there are enough requests for it :)

I'm sorry, but this is awesome. You should really advertise better.

The only thing this game missing is at least one more level pack with different gfx and some soothing background music.

Anyway, like I said, awesome work. Especially on the graphics. In case someone needs a motivation to download, look:

EDIT:

BTW, this is fbgfx?

Man, This Game is excellent!!
It's missing the sound effects and ambient music though!
You should really consider adding them!
Good work on the graphics, dude.
By the looks of it, you've done extensive play testing too..
Also, You should put a mouse wheel alternative in level editor..
Good job!

Good suggestion about the mouse wheel alternative. I'll certainly add that. I might as well add key binding options while I'm at it too.

Does anyone know of a good tracker program that can save as ogg or mp3 ?
I'll add some music at the least. However, I figured people may want to listen to their own music while playing :)

THIS GAME ROCKS!!

Truly this is incredible, nice graphics and even better play control...that is perhaps the hardest thing to master in a game and you did it. This game would be top notch if you add music and sound effects. For music why not just use .mod or .it or some other form of tracked music thats if it's size your worried about. Sound effects can be anything and you could probably make them for this type of game. But definitely keep working on this game.

@dabooda: It would be nice to add music, via .mod , .xm or .it but I'm having trouble getting a tracker to work under this linux distro on the eee. Also, the asus seems to have a little trouble with fmod, and fbsound doesn't support tracker files as far as I know.

@Lachie: Yes, this is all native fbgfx

Mambazo, have you tried the Linux Multimedia Studio? http://lmms.sourceforge.net/ Open Source, free, looks good. And if it doesn't do OGG I'm pretty sure there are converters out there that do this conversion like this converter: http://www.kde-apps.org/content/show.php?content=12608

Hope this helps.
