Package: kiki-the-nano-bot
Version: 1.0.2+dfsg1-8
Followup-For: Bug #936796

This one is heading for removal I fear. The last upstream release was
10+ years ago, I don't think we can expect a new release.

I investigated a bit what a port would involve. The C++ part only
needs a few small adjustments I think (this is a mixed C++/Python
project).  But 2to3 does a very poor job on the Python code, all that
code will need to be reviewed and fixed by hand.  Also, because so
much of the game is implemented in Python, each level will have to be
playtested and compared to the original. That's much more work than
I'm willing to do for this game.
