Sat, 08 Jun 2024 08:33:16 -0700 

Package: between
Version: 6+dfsg1-4
Severity: grave
Tags: upstream
Justification: renders package unusable

Dear Maintainer,

   * What led up to the situation?

I installed between and tried to run it.
* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or ineffective)? 

Run the "between" program.

   * What was the outcome of this action?

The following is printed in the terminal:

Screen dimensions for fullscreen mode:  640x480
L4 | Sat Jun 8 11:19:18 2024 (506 ms) | general | Checking if requested video mode (640x480) is available 
L4 | Sat Jun  8 11:19:18 2024 (506 ms) | general | All resolutions available
Max note length in song = 16
Response:  <html>
<head><title>301 Moved Permanently</title></head>
<body>
<center><h1>301 Moved Permanently</h1></center>
<hr><center>cloudflare</center>
</body>
</html>
The game window opens and shows the title screen. When I press spacebar, it shows "Locating server..." for a second, and then shows the message "ERROR: Badly formatted response from server." (see attachment). There is no way to continue after this point, except to close the window. 

   * What outcome did you expect instead?
The game would be playable. It seems to depend on a server that no longer exists.
