World of Goo Ported To Linux

christian.einfeldt writes "Lovers of both games and Free Open Source Software will be pleased to see that the popular indie puzzle game World of Goo has been released for Linux. It was designed by a small team of two ex-Electronic Arts developers, Kyle Gabler and Ron Carmel, who used their entire combined savings of $10,000.00 USD to create the gooey game aimed at guiding goo balls to salvation. The developers built their gooey world with open-source technologies such as Simple DirectMedia Layer, Open Dynamics Engine for physics simulation, and TinyXML for configuration and animation files. Subversion and Mantis Bug Tracker were used for work coordination. Blogger Ken Starks points out that the release of this popular game for Linux could be a big step toward ending the chicken-and-egg problem of a dearth of good games that run natively under Linux."

      Men who liked shaved pussy are actually lusting after young pubescent girls, like 11 or 12ish. They want to bang little girls.

      They are most likely after little boys.

      After the parent's logic, they clearly must be lesbians liking dildos without hair!

    Great, can you rip your balls off too so you don't contaminate the rest of the world?
