If you are old enough and liked playing videogames you probably remember the text-only ATC game now distributed in the "bsdgames" package of several *nix distributions.
This game is a modern (graphical) reimplementation of it that deliberately retains some of the clumsiness of the original one.
What is similar to the original game:
What is "next generation":
For the moment the game aims to be... a game. When version 1.0 will be out I might consider increasing realism, bringing it conceptually closer to a simulation.
Af of 13 Sep 2011 The project is in alpha: the game interface is close to what it will look in the first stable release, and all in-game entities have been implemented. However the overall "feel" of the game is still quite different from the final one, as both the scenarios and the game modes are in their early phases.
An ubuntu (debian) package of the game is maintained (you can download it from
github__ itself, look for the Downloads button on the upper right of the
screen)
