I don't know where to record this elsewhere. So I'll do it here, hoping others will be less lazy than my self and publish the binary.

Qonk a small and vey basic real-time space conquering strategy game, than can be compiled on haiku/beos in version 0.0.2beta1 with only a few trivial problems, but it still runs and those problems are fully fixable.

Those problems are: its defines PI when it already is defined on haiku, it searches for SDL.h and SDL_ttf.h in ~/include/ rather than in ~/include/SDL/ , and when complied and you try to play the game it looks for the SDL and SDL_ttf libraries with weird (I'm guessing Linux) names.

The newest version of the game is qonk-0.3.1 but it is not as portable as 0.0.2 . So 0.3.1 needs to be ported to haiku, even if all they have done is change the icon of the sun and shape of the ships .

so which binary works on Haiku? I can post the file if there is one that already works. If not could you compile it and let me know where it is and then I can upload it to the site.

No doubt community member and compatriot 'Begasus' is the one to contact. Visit zeta-games to see what he's up to and to find out his contact info.

well I got off my arse and complied the binary qonk0.0.2

I've talked to Begasus about ODE. I was meant to talk to him about this, but it seems I totality forgot about it after the other weekend as I had a bit of drama going on .

Should probably upload:

this software here. That way it'll be more visible/maybe catch interst...

yes that would be the best place for it
