Run it from the terminal

Try running it from the Terminal. Works fine for me.

You could write these 3 lines to a textfile (call it "launch" for example):

#!/bin/sh
cd /to/where/you/have/unzipped/the/game
Terminal -i -c Barrage

To use it like an executeable from BeOS go into a terminal and type:

cd /to/where/you/have/unzipped/the/game
copyattr Barrage launch (or however you called the textfile above)

Now you can just double click it or put a link to it in your be-menu and you even have the correct icon.

BTW this works for most apps you normally run from a terminal (like BeBochs for example).

Have fun, it's a funny game - a bit senseless but funny.

Yes it does. The game comes with the needed libraries, it does not use your install SDL libs.
What do you mean it "fades away"?

doesnt work?

i have the SDLGame libs from bebits, but when the game starts, i get a full black screen, then it quickly fades away. (TNT Video card)
