Super Tux


I'm trying to play the Super Tux game that came with my Acer Aspire 1. In the keyboard settings it says to make him run use 10g. I've tried everything but can't get him to run to knock the wall down. Also does the game only save at the end of a level?
Any help gratefully appreciated.

I would reassign a new key to the run command because 10g doesn't sound right. It's relatively straight forward to do:

1. Launch SuperTux
2. Click on Options
3. Click on Keyboard Setup
4. Hover over Power/Run with the mouse
5. Press which ever key on the keyboard you want to use for running
6. Click Back
7. Click Back
8. Then launch your game as usual

When running SuperTux on my PC I have to use the left Control (Ctrl) key (the default) to make him run and then hold the space bar down so he can just jump over the wall (on the first level). I don't think he can smash through it or knock it over.

It will only save upon completion of a level. I remember my first computer game (Chuckie Egg) wouldn't save anything, so I had to start from scratch every time! Ah, those were the days...
