[Kde-games-devel] New game in playground: KDiamond

[Eugene Trounev]

Welcome,

Love the game. Always wanted a bejeweled game I can play under KDE :) (there 
are a lot of games I *always wanted* to play under KDE, but bejeweled happens 
to be a long time faworite of mine, and I already got tanks, and tetris, and 
lines, and mahjong, and patience, and... well no point going on here, as it 
will take up all night :P ).
Artwork is comming right up :P Give me a week or so, and there will be real 
diamonds there ;)

Best wishes,

Eugene
