"Filler" is a Java-based game that involves capturing coloured hexagons by changing their colours. The game is visually appealing and offers an exciting challenge to users.
Installation of the game is relatively easy. Simply run 'make' in the top directory, which will build a jar file. Depending on your system, you may need to be a super-user to run 'make install'. Alternatively, you can run the game directly using 'java -jar filler.jar'. The executable program is called 'filler' and will be installed in /usr/local/bin.
One of the key improvements in release 1.01 is that filler will use your shell variable LANG to set the language that it runs in. The latest release also includes some exciting new features such as 'inc' to 'other' directory, which is the code header you include to say that the code is released under GPL. Additionally, the resources_de.properties and resources_fr.properties have been removed as the developer found them to be pretty bad.
Other notable features include the addition of sortByRandom() to PlayerWrappers, 'build.xml' to 'other' for use with ant, cleaned up access privileges on some fields, and some clean-up of bad identifiers. Added Kris Verbeeck's RemotePlayer, which enhances the player's experience.
Overall, Filler is a great game to play, especially for those who love casual games. It has a convenient installation process and offers satisfying gameplay, and the latest release comes with exciting new features that make the game more enjoyable.
