Hi

My name is Julien. I started programming (BASIC) at 5 years old. I have used GNU Linux since 2002. I'm an engineer in computer science and the creator of TUER, a small free open source ( ) first person shooter written in Java, OpenGL (JOGL) and OpenAL (JOAL). I'm a political activist and I actively support the Free Movement. I participated to demonstrations against ACTA, HADOPI, LOPPSI, ... I'm here to speak about free open source gaming. I hate DRM.

[Miek]

Hi all,

Just wanted to quickly introduce myself. I created this account to give some feedback for Lips of Suna because I believe it has a lot of potential but it also has some major flaws.

[qubodup]

open source software can be sold.

"Free" as in "Free Software" as in "Free as in Freedom"... There's an article explaining the problem http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gratis_versus_libre (other languages available)

[Barsook]

Hi, I'm Barsook (real name Svetlana) and I'm from Ohio, USA. I'm known to have crazy ideas for new freatures for games and this time I have one for SuperTuxKart. Hopefully, I will try to get more involved into the project as time passes by.

Hey all!

My name is Chris. Online I'm know as Landman. I am an interactive media designer and game designer. I'm obsessed with art, design, gaming and web dev. My first game I started working is called Robolegs. Which is a Mech FPS.

[Nushio]

Hey there,

My name's Juan Rodriguez, but I'm known as Nushio around the internets. I just found out about this place thanks to BartK. I participated on the Liberated Pixel Cup contest, with "Unsealed: Whispers of Wisdom", a game that parodies Open Source vs Apple.

The game is in active development, though I admit that development has been pretty slow this past month, due to dedicating most of my time writing about the other LPCs games in my blog and writing about the contest on opensource.com

[Undertaker]

Hi,

I'm from Michigan, 41 years old father of 3. Love working with graphics, designed the Alien Arena logos, last two, MBAM icon and other program icons, created quite a few Duck Duck Go logos (got repetitive) and many other site banners, logos and icons. Gamed on nearly every system over the years, finally stuck with PC as of several years back, some of my favourites are Quake type games and remain so which is what drew me in to this game, that and I got tired of Windows so began using Linux again, and found this on the net as a great free game.

Pretty much all there is, I'm a noob at the game but hope to have a real match soon.

[devnewton]

Hi,

I'm devnewton, author of some free softwares, most of my work is related to my main project, Newton Adventure, a 2d physical 360° platformer, but I occasionaly contribute to other projects.

[semiletov]

Hi, I'm Peter Semiletov, the developer of TEA text editor and EKO sound editor and some other Free and public domain software. Some time ago I've decided to do that I want for years - to make my own games. The first try was the animal-rights-themed, public domain Yourik the Intergalactic Rabbit that I wrote using C++/Qt. I've created all images and music for myself, and voices were been recorded with a help of friends. Now I'm working one the "Yourik 2", it will be multiplatform C++/SDL side-scroller shooter with parallax. I am big fan of old DOS, NES and SEGA Genesis games, also old RPG's like Fallout 1/2, Baldur's Gate, Quest For Glory, etc. Actually, I have NES and Genesis Chinese clones so I'm playing "in hardware". Preffered genre - platformer.
Some of my public domain music (yes, I give all my music to the public domain) is used in FOSS games.

[KroArtem]

Nice to see more people from Russia/Ukraine!

[CA99]

Sam from MI here. I grew up on Mario Kart but never picked up SuperTuxKart until recently. I'm planning to work on that in my free time and get familiar with the project. I'm on my last year of college and getting a degree in IT. I can work with images, 3D models, have rudimentary programming skills, and have done a variety of other things on computers. Raised on Windows, been learning Linux (as is necessary for my major anyway).

Aside from SuperTuxKart, I've barely been involved in a project called OpenParkDeveloper (So far I contributed mostly talk and one low poly 3D model that I don't even know whether its being used), a project slightly inspired by the Roller Coaster Tycoon series and NoLimits Coaster simulator. I also had plans/ideas for developing my own project in Unreal Development Kit (and using it to learn more on modeling/game art, game design, etc.). In short, I'm way too ambitious for my own good, and want to learn and create far more than I currently have the time for. (The same problem is true with work I've done in NoLimits Coaster simulator; I have a lot of unfinished projects in there and these are way, way simpler than building an entire game.)

[Arthur]

Welcome Sam!

I recommend heading over to the SuperTuxKart website if you haven't done so already, as it contains a lot of info useful for anyone wanting to contribute (or otherwise just learn about the project). If you have any questions, feel free to ask them in any way you feel comfortable with: our project forums, generously hosted by FreeGameDev, our IRC channel (#stk at FreeNode) or our mailing list (supertuxkart-devel_at_lists.sourceforge.net).

[nap]

Hello everybody, i played for redeclispe for few weaks and i like this game, i'd like to make some mods for it, i will read this forum and hope i will make mods.
Once upon a time i created good mode for fallout 3 http://fallout3.nexusmods.com/mods/3661

[CA99]

Thanks. I've been lurking around and have read some of the pages. Found some good information on modeling that I never did when learning to model for UDK. For the most part, I'll probably just lurk more until I gather enough to get started.

Problem is, all my (limited) skillset rests in 3DS Max and Adobe's products. I've been lacking the motivation to go open source as well.

In any case, most of my time will be freed up after this semester ends, so I should be able to dig in easily by then.
