Euclidean Battle - An arcade game by Ben Hull

Euclidean Battle is an arcade-style game that borrows elements from several games such as Robotron: 2084 and Geometry Wars to put the player into life-and-death situations where they must constantly fly their ship around to avoid destruction while battling various geometric enemies! It uses the SDL, sdl_image, and sdl_mixer libraries (licensed under the GPL) as well as the sdl_gfx library (by A. Schiffler, licensed under the LGPL), so it should (theoretically) run on all platforms that support these libraries. Please visit the SourceForge project page to download the sourcecode.
