Anyone planning on using PyOGRE? I'd like to try it, has anyone got a prebuilt linux binary? It would save one lazy programmer (me) a lot of hassle!.

So yeah, sorry about that, Norwegians. I'm really getting pumped up for Pyweek right now. I feel really inspired, so I'm currently just hoping that the inspiration will last until April.
I would really like to do a short warmup compo at some point before the actual compo. 24 hours, a weekend... something like that. If you're interested in something like that, drop me a line in the comments or on IRC (nick pekuja).

Howdy, if any of you guys happen to be Digg members ...

:)

OK, I guess I have to put my foot down here. The challenge rules state:

If you do have a library you must release it within a reasonable amount of time before the challenge starts so that others may have the opportunity of using the library

I've previously stated to people who've asked that in my books 1 month is the minimum "reasonable amount of time".

This amount of time is now to be included in the rules to make it absolutely clear. PyWeek is entirely predictable - it runs every 6 months, and is generally announced about 3 months out. That should be plenty of time for library devs to hawk their wares.

Coming this april...

To a network cable near you

Experience the likes of which you may have experienced many times before, and yet will never have experienced in nearly exactly the way you will soon be experiencing, in April, when the 4th pyweek kicks off and then ends...

Century of the Fruit Bat is proud to present...

A preview of the preview that is to come...

Romance, explosions, physics, collision detection, all taking place in a world gone mad!

Amaze yourself, when 1000 elephants will soon fill your screen!

Hey guys,

Here are a bunch of game sprites that I've made in the past that you're totally allowed to use in the competition.

- my GalaxyMage page
- the Game Art section of my blog (includes assets from the previous Pyweek)

I'm very curious to see how these would be used in a new game. I imagine they would be most useful to a one-man-team entrant.
All I ask for in return is a little bit of credit in your README file. :) Thanks and enjoy!

Any one want to join to make an network strategy game?

I am kinda leaning on making "online risk like board game" engine with different games/mods which contain rules,maps,ai,and sounds. All in a networking package with ability to quickly make or cone other board games similar to risk,supremacy,axes and allies, or conquest of the empire.

On the exact details cant say yet because no theme has been chosen yet. But form bunnies, to wild cards, to terminators, board games can do them all

mmorts is just for fun, i think it is more like an "otg" but it does not matter...

You should set the "broughten" field in your database to "True". -sjbrown

anyone who would like to join a team, especially an artist or musician,
as I lack much experience in either ;)

In the rules, it says that artwork made beforehand msut be placed on the web so the other people can use that too. Would I have to do that if I develop every thing in that one week?
