multiplayer mode : i already thought of it. we need to talk a lot about
how doing that efficiently. this is not a trivial issue.

that's cool. it's not so common to find people engaged politically
nowadays :)

there is a cool book available on the net
it's called "linux games programming" there is an excellent part
about sdl.
now about what to do, some important questions :
- graphics :
- higher resolution thant 640x480 ? how to do that exactly,
especially if we make a new theme for the game
- opengl ? (i think we don't need it)
- scripting :
- what language to use : lua ? (see enigma game for example)
- what exactly should be scriptable ? races powers ?
- themes :
- just different pictures ? new technology tree ? new races ?
- translation : do we do one ? could some words belong to logic factory
?
- website and advertising : happypenguin.org
that's it :)
i'll be busy until i pass my speech but after that i'll have
plenty of time since i'm awake at 1 in the morning ;-)
