Description

our https://build.opensuse.org/project/show/games OBS repo has a lot of cool fun games, such as 'heroes-tron' but many stopped compiling for Tumbleweed. Common issues are usage of the %patch0 macro or a BuildRequires xorg-x11-devel or boost_system that need updating. Some C code is also old and does not compile with gcc15 anymore.

Goals

Get many games back to build for our modern distributions.
