Please use a single consistent versioning scheme instead of versions vs. builds, otherwise it's a mess which confuses package maintainers, see https://repology.org/project/wizznic/information

I get this error whenever I try to run wizznic (empty ~/.wizznic):

Hi there,

Linux packagers can currently use data/wmicon.png as an icon when providing a desktop file for integration of Wizznic in the desktop's menu. The file is however only 32x32, so it will look fine in some desktops (e.g. KDE with classical menu), but won't look good in others that show higher res icons (Gnome Shell uses 128x128 or 256x256 IINM).

Restart-game icon when playing with mouse.
Highscores cannot be entered with keyboard
Visual progress indicator (theme-defined)
Completed pack screen can't be exited with mouseclick

It would be nice if you could tag past (and future, when they're released ;)) stable releases in this git repo, especially the ones from SourceForge: https://sourceforge.net/projects/wizznic/files/Source%20Releases/

It would in particular make it clearer what new commits have been pushed since 0.9.9 (and if it could be an incentive to finally release 1.0.0, that shouldn't hurt ;)).

What license is this game under?

When I try to move a brick, I get Segmentation fault error - dereference of b in board.c at line 485 cannot be done properly:
int deltaX= (b->dx*brickSize+boardOffsetX) - b->pxx ;
It seems that the sufficient workaround is to reset a list iterator after each list element removal, like this:
listRemoveItem( pf->movingList, li, LIST_NEXT ); li=&pf->movingList->begin;
but it needs to be further investigated.

OpenGL fullscreen mode is buggy.
Non-opengl mode, draws ok, but the playfield is a lot smaller.

On Debian oldstable, x64.

The Downloads section on the Wizznic website still reference the old version released on 2016-02-16. Same thing for the PKGBUILD that's on that page.

Here's the desktop file I'm using for Mageia's wizznic package:

[Desktop Entry]
Name=Wizznic
Comment=Brick-matching puzzle game
GenericName=Puzzle game
Exec=wizznic
Icon=wizznic
Type=Application
Categories=Game;LogicGame;

This file should be installed as /usr/share/applications/wizznic.desktop.

The Icon=wizznic part will only work if an icon named wizznic.png (or wizznic.svg) is provided in at least one of these locations:

• /usr/share/icons/hicolor/*/apps
• /usr/share/icons
• /usr/share/pixmaps
  The "modern" way is to use the hicolor theme, so you could for example install data/wmicon.png to /usr/share/icons/hicolor/32x32/apps/wizznic.png

If high-res icons are provided (see #9), you can also install them in the corresponding folders in the hicolor theme (e.g. "128x128" or "scalable").
