Connect Four (for the Nokia n800)


I've ported a free Python Connect Four by Danial P. Clark to Maemo for the Nokia n800.

I've taken out the ability to add player names, since it wasn't key to the game, and you generally won't have access to a keyboard when playing. I've also enlarged the quit dialog and changed the end of game input to just wait for a screen tap to start another game.

Daniel did HEAVY keyboard usage in this game, but I found that only a few features were really needed to play. I've also hacked out his fonts and instead used the default PyGame fonts in order to save room.

I also added a startup splash window so that launching using d-bus would work properly.

TIP: When you are done playing, hit the hardware escape key.

All in all, it's a good implementation of Connect Four. Enjoy! Licensed under GPL V2 - see license.txt in /usr/lib/connectfour
