Mystic Galaxies Developers Newsletter October 14, 2008

________________________________________________________________________
Hi. First off, I'm proud to announce the release of mOX 0.2 Beta. It is
currently available in source and i386 deb. You can get it at
http://www.mysticgalaxies.com/products/games/mox.html and also report
bugs from the same location. Our project Nicky Bear Racing has been
temporarily postponed for the time being because the programming
department currently does not have that much skill in the field of
Crystal Space. Instead we will be doing a Sonic 3D Blast clone using
Crystal Space. This uses simpler camera movement and object collision.
Here are things we need to focus on this week:

Programming Team:

        - Download and install the Crystal Space dependencies (we use
        asound and ODE) as well as Crystal Space if you don't have it.
        Crystal Space is obtainable from http://www.crystalspace3d.org 
        - Research Crystal Space API (read the tutorial code provided
        with Crystal Space).
        - I'll do basecode until we agree on a name and a Launchpad
        project is created.

Audio Team:

        - Make songs similar to those used in the game Sonic 3D Blast
        (examples:
        http://www.vgmusic.com/music/console/sega/genesis/index-sz.html#Sonic_3D_Blast Please no remixes of those songs, be original)

Modeling Team:

        - Download and install Blender if you don't have it.
        - I'll do character models until we agree on a name and a
        Launchpad project is created.

EVERYONE:

        - IRC meeting at 9:00 PM on Saturday (date and time not
        finalized, if you don't get another email, it's at this time).
        
        
                                                              Sincerely,

                                                          Braden Walters
