XBall in Breadstick

Breadstick runs Debian's own xball package for ARM64, the build a Debian 13 computer with an ARM processor installs, so XBall should look and behave as it does on a Linux PC. On Samsung DeX, Floating mode opens it as its own window beside your Android apps, and Desktop mode runs it on a full Linux desktop.

Breadstick draws graphics with the processor rather than the GPU, so 2D, puzzle, card and board games suit it best, and fast 3D games run slowly. More about games in Breadstick.

About XBall

From the project's description

This program simulates bouncing balls in a window. You create the balls in a variety of ways, and can set the gravity, elasticity, whether balls collide or not, etc.

Software features user-configurable menus, and a DrawingArea widget for use with other Athena widgets.

All resources are contained within the program as fallback resources, so, it is not strictly neccessary to install the app-defaults file, except that when using Athena widgets, since the keyboard accelertors will not work if the app-defauls file is not installed.

To run the included demos, open a console terminal and type 'run_demos'.
