This is a really bad idea. Such package would most probably be rejected.

One possible solution would be to split the pk3 before you Debianize it
and just pretend it is an original upstream package. You have to repack
Nexuiz into tar.gz anyway, so that would not be so bad, in my opinion.

You seem to be using 64x64 icons inside menu, whereas Debian Menu
documentation states, that only icons up to 32x32 in size are allowed.

No, I am not a DD, but I am very interested in Nexuiz. I even wanted to
package it some time ago, but got into playing it instead... :)
