Gnome Hearts 0.1 Release Announcement
Gnome Hearts 0.1 Release Announcement ------------------------------------- Lone Wolves [1] is happy to announce the release of Gnome Hearts version 0.1, an implementation of the classic hearts card game for the Gnome desktop. Gnome Hearts 0.1 is the first release since the project's inception on April 30, earlier this year. Gnome Hearts features configurable rule-sets such as Omnibus and Spot Hearts besides the standard rules. The game also has multiple computer players that are implemented in the Lua [2] scripting language. This allows for easy modification of the players. Also, the game can use any deck of cards installed for the Gnome Games package.
