Conversion Notes

Changes in game itself

• Make the "dead-monster-goo" green instead of red, to be more kid friendly.
  • "is it blood? it's not! it is snot!"
• OLPC keymapping - gamepad keys for in-game play.
• Speed up fading in/out.
• Scaling support; Scale up graphics for the OLPC.
  • Linear scaling done manually for sprites; slower but blocky and non-SGE.
• More command line options for OLPC integration;- volume, fullscreen, scaling etc.

Sugar and XO integration

• Activity wrapping in Sugar (icon, launcher, etc)
• Include Ruby/SDL and libruby1.8.so.1.8 libs directly.
