Yeah, I looked very much, but there was nothing that suited. The problem is, 
that there are a few bomberman clones for linux that can be played over 
network, but the other two guys I want to play with use windows.

Does network gaming work? I'm just trying to recompile kamikaze, because the 
last time I think I build it without ggz.
In the end I think it will be an mixture of kamikaze and kapman, especially 
because in kapman there is already the SVG stuff done and the game is very 
similar. I think the main thing would be to make capable to play over network.
