    Powerball!

    Remember that old puzzle game, Labyrinth? I used to LOVE that game! Well, “Zaiib” clearly shares my passion, since he has made a version for the PC!

    Ok, so there’s lots of games like this… right? Wrong.

    Powerball is a puzzle game where you have to tip a board in order to bring a ball into the target. On the way you can collect Items like coins, beam, switches (which open you doors to more coins). It’s based on the Ogre 3D Engine and was created during a University Project.

    It supports Webcams (put a real board in front and move it) and Stereo view.

    Sorry, what? It supports webcams?! I was ready to download and experiment with this awesome feature, but then I read -

    “You have to compile it to install it on Linux”.

    :| I really wanted to play this game, yet I don’t have Linux any more (though it’s tempting to get it again)! But… do you run Linux? If you do, please let us know how this game plays, because it sounds totally awesome and looks the part too ^_^ This game is also open-source.
