Re: [Super-tux-devel] Level-file / Level-features

[offipso <of...@ab...>]

Personally, if I may chime in, I think that Linux is lacking a Mario-ish
side scrolling game, and SuperTux could really fill that gap. Thus, I
think that it should be packed with features, amazing goodies such as
multiple "depth" backgrounds (is it called parallaxing?), moving tiles,
the ability to scroll the map in all the directions, underwater levels,=20
bosses, world maps (possibly), bonus levels, a plethora of enemies,
screen effects (lighting?), hills!, switches, THE WORKS!=20

That would be in an ideal world, at least.
