(In reply to Stefan Eßer from comment #1)

The sources seem to have been ported from DOS and contain a lot of code that
looks questionable to me (e.g. the whole scan code parsing).

- Do you mean for the sound effects and the color data for the sprites? I've
run is through cppcheck and rats if that matters. Can you define what you mean
by "questionable" though?

And a game needing privileges (installed as SUID binary by default!) seems to
be a very bad idea from a security point of view.

- I'm using svgalib. So for a user with non-root privileges to run the program
it would need SUID set. And example of this can be found in the acidwrap demo:
https://cgit.freebsd.org/ports/tree/graphics/acidwarp/Makefile
If there is another way to perform this I am open to changing it of course.
