Talk:Neverball

Non-free Media?
The game data contain a non-free Dejavu font (the license disallows selling the font on its own). From the Debian copyright file: "GPL-3+-with-font-exception". Should we disqualify this game? --Drummyfish (talk) 05:00, 10 January 2019 (CET)
 * I've been offered a link to FSF saying the license is discouraged, but can be considered free. Sadly a large number of libre games use fonts licensed this way. Anyway, the game can stay. --Drummyfish (talk) 05:00, 10 January 2019 (CET)

NOT a puzzle game
Neverball is certainly NOT a puzzle game. Puzzle games are all about thinking and logic and about solving puzzles, but Neverball is nothing like that.

In Neverball you need to have good reaction/dexterity, but I don't know how you call this kind of games in English. In German, it would be “Geschicklichkeitsspiel”.


 * The English translation of Geschicklichkeitsspiel is "puzzle game". That's why Tetris, Bubble Shooter and Portal are the first three curated results on a Google search for "puzzle game". --Hendrik Brummermann (talk) 20:19, 30 May 2019 (CEST)

Octocat & Oculus SDK
Neverball includes GitHub's Octocat as a bonus ball, which is not free culture. See also this discussion on GitHub. Modanung (talk) 22:33, 6 January 2022 (CET)
 * The included Oculus SDK might also be problematic. Modanung (talk) 23:24, 6 January 2022 (CET)
