LGP Announces Game Development Team

Ronald Hymer writes "Linuxlookup.com is reporting Linux Game Publishing has announced the Linux Game Development Project team. The eight winners of LGP's game development company initiative were announced last evening and Linuxlookup's very own resident programmer Matt Wilson was granted one of the eight positions on the team. Along with project information, they link submitted code samples along with the team member URL's." See our previous story about this. Hey team: no penguins in your game, okay?

    There are some good game engines out there that are cheap.

    For instance, Torque, the engine Tribes 2 is based on, is available for $100 dollars. And in addition to that, you can test it out a bit beforehand. It works with Windows, Mac, and Linux. Not every game engine costs several hundred thousand dollars.

    And last time I checked, Tribes 2 didn't look too amateurish or cheaply made.

    The entire writeup at linuxlookup.com was lifted verbatim from my announcement at happypenguin.org. As far as I know, this team has not been announced *anywhere* yet besides happypenguin. Plagiarism sucks, guys.
