LGP Announces Game Development Project

michaelsimms writes "Linux Game Publishing is excited to announce our newest project to increase the appeal of Linux gaming. We are sponsoring the development of a from-scratch Linux title! We are looking for developers to work in a team to produce this game, and we will be publishing the game they make! If you are interested, please follow the link to our detailed announcement and within there you will find the rules, requirements, and application process. If you have wanted to get into the gaming industry, if you love playing games, and if you are a creative thinker, not afraid of a challenge and a bit of risk, then you need to take a look." I don't know whether to be happy about anything that promotes Linux gaming, or disappointed that people are being asked to work on a commercial project without a salary.

    Finally! Now I can waste time on one monitor while coding in another!

    That brings up a good point, though. I wonder if they're ever going to really pin down a good multi-monitor setup (albeit Xinerama or Multi-head support in Windows) that doesn't just totally trash everything with weird resolution requirements.

    But, then, that's offtopic.

    It amazes me that this GUY (and I'm sure he's a guy) gets modded up on every post simply because he calls himself a sexy gal.

    Anyone read Pattern Recognition yet? Gibson mentions the manipulation of nerds by faking gender.
