from a project in the works by Rattra and I. We still have a long way to go, but it's definetly going to be a fun game. It's Rattra's original idea, I just hammered out the basic engine. It's called Robo-Raider. ;)
Here's a video.

It is definitely an impressive video, but I have no idea what the game is suppose to be, can we get a little more detail or do we have to wait? ><

Thanks... Honestly, I'm not exactly sure what he has in mind. The main idea was to have a robot that could drive around like a tank, with the ability to pick things up with it's arm. There are a lot of possibilities with that, ya know? I was thinking about adding an extra vehicle behind the robot, connected with a universal joint. It could be kinda like a wagon, and would be used to carry objects around in. I also think it would be fun to have stages where you have to diffuse bombs, or something of that nature. ;)

The movie plays fine in VLC 0.8.5, which should be available on your Linux distribution of choice. :)

Last time I tried vlc (less than two months ago) it killed my gnome session so I prefer staying away from that for now...
