We are still looking for a Linux coder who needs to bring the ability
to work in a team, reliability and some time to spend on his hobby.
The job at hand is porting our game to Linux. The SAL (Software
Abstraction Layer) is mostly completed. What remains is to add 90% of
the in-game screens, consisting of mostly compatible source code. These
are taken from the Windows version of the game.

The goal of this project, which is aimed to run at a minimum of 640 by 480 pixels in 2D, is to create a massively multiplayer game for home entertainment systems (like set top boxes) running Linux.

The coder will receive 50% of all profits made from the Linux version.

The details:

- based on SDL
- SAL about 90% complete (audio mixer is missing, for example)
- coder should be aware of little- and big-endian issues
- program should compile and run on x86 and PowerPC Linux
- more platforms possible after that
- PPC-Linux computers are available here for testing
- we have a team dealing with all non-coding issues like advertising,
homepage, customer support, forum and tester support
- a screen can be ported in about 4 hours (after you've learned the
ropes of the SAL)
- currently about 15 screens are to be ported
- approximate work time is about 3 months, depending on skill and time
invested
