Jeff Hughes <address@hidden> described the package as follows:
License: gpl
Other License: 
Package: Yet Another Liero Attempt
System name: yala
Type: non-GNU

Description:
Liero is a free DOS game that is like worms but real time as opposed to 
turn-based.  It was able to run on slow machines due to it's exceptional 
design.  The problem is that the developer does not like open source nor does 
he ever plan to hand out the source to Liero so many clones have been created 
in the open source world.  But most of these clones have failed to capture the 
fast and elegant design of the original liero which makes them chunky and slow. 
 YALA, which stands for "Yet Another Liero Attempt", will be a simple and fast 
open source liero clone using SDL for a graphics package.  Many of the 
principles of the original liero will be borrowed such as 8bit graphics to keep 
things minimal and extensible weapon system, but bloat will be kept to a 
minimum.

Other Software Required:
SDL
