[Gambas-user] Sylph: Project Miyaji initial demonstration release

[Kevin Fishburne]

If this mailing list is the wrong place for this sort of thing, someone 
please let me know.

I've publicly released the first demo of a new game I'm working on for 
testing. Tweeting about it is one thing, but everyone on this list 
obviously is best-qualified to test GAMBAS applications. If anyone's 
interested in providing me with feedback, here's the Tweet I sent out:

I'm still trying to figure out the best way to distribute a GAMBAS 
application to the "laziest Linux user possible", meaning a single-click 
solution. From what I've seen the version of GAMBAS distributed with 
most distributions is unstable, with the stable (or daily) PPA being 
recommended. Is there a way to create a .deb package that includes the 
stable or daily build of GAMBAS instead of depending on the distro's 
GAMBAS packages? Adding a PPA and installing from there is also 
acceptable, but it appears that modern distros require execution of 
scripts from the command line and not by double-clicking in the GUI.
