Anyone Remember Maelstrom?

Was wondering if anyone remembers a game called Maelstrom (basically a jazzed up version of asteroids). It is still one of my favs. I still play it on my pc. The website for the game offers up the source code also, via Linux, Mac, and Windows.

I would love to see this game on the GP2X.

Not bad, I prefer Spheres of Chaos. Pity it's not open source.

LOL that looks like a seizure waiting to happen. =P I would have no idea how to go about getting this game to work for the GP2X but figure it would be easier than most considering it is already written in Linux. But again I don't have a clue. I really just love the home brew and port possibilities of this gadget so much. Reminds me of the Dreamcast community in its aspirations for greatness I suppose. That and I just love this game....it's incredibly addictive once you give it a go....lots of oddball stuff as the levels progress. Anyway hoping someone in the community could take this and run with it.

Yeah maelstrom is cool. I've got it running on my xbox and it's good fun. I reckon porting won't be very difficult as it seems to be fairly platform independent.
