SuperTux 0.7 Reaches Beta For Reviving An Open-Source Classic
Longtime Linux users likely have fond memories of SuperTux as the open-source jump-n-run game that used to be included on some early Linux live CD/DVDs for this Super Mario Bros inspired game. There hasn't been a new release of SuperTux in over four years but out today is the beta of SuperTux 0.7 as a major overhaul to the free software, family-friendly game title.
SuperTux 0.7 beta is described as "perhaps one of the largest facelifts to the base game since the introduction of milestone 2!" SuperTux 0.7 has been redoing various worlds and bringing new artwork and music and more. They warn that it may feel like a completely different game albeit still the same fundamentals.
In addition to the many new in-game assets, the Android version has been revived and improved. There are also now Flatpak builds of the game. And various other fixes and improvements to the title. SuperTux 0.7 beta with SDL2 now also prefers Wayland.
