Racket sports gaming experience

Tennix! is a tennis game written in C using the Simple DirectMedia Layer. The game features a two-player game mode and a single-player mode against the computer.

The Tennix source code is available under the GNU General Public License, Version 2 or later.

Tennix currently runs on Linux, MacOS X and Windows, but porting it to other platforms should be straightforward, if they support SDL.
