wxAsteroids is a game demonstrating the wxHaskell GUI.
More about this at: http://www.haskell.org/haskellwiki/wxAsteroids
Maybe I should add more informationn to this:
The main purpose of this game is to learn how to use wxHaskell; it also shows, in the main function, how a cabalized program can find its data files.
I don't want to take the credit for this program; I took the source code and images from the paper: wxHaskell - A Portable and Concise GUI Library for Haskell [1] by Daan Leijen. If you want to learn how to use wxHaskell, I can advise you to read this paper.
Daan gave me permission to publish the code with a BSD license.

This sounds entertaining, but according to the HaskellWiki entry for GuiTV (see http://haskell.org/haskellwiki/GuiTV), "wxHaskell ... can be difficult to install." Has this difficulty been resolved? I am somewhat hesitant to install wxHaskell because of this reported difficulty. Has anybody had any recent difficulties in installing this package combination on Windows XP Professional, Service Pack 2? -- Benjamin L. Russell -- Benjamin L.
