Nukeracer
An open-source, GPL-licensed game in development which will feature a two-player car game over the network with collisions, weapons, and well-designed levels. Includes an implementation of the open-source graphics engine irrlicht (irrlicht.sourceforge.net) for the graphical part of the game. Newton Game Dynamics, physics engine for the physics in the game. See here for details. Irrklang sound engine used for the sound in the game. See here for details. C++ used as the language due to its speed and flexibility at working between apis. Currently in alpha stage, team still working on problems with integrating Newton with Irrlicht correctly. Since dimensions and matrices differ between the two engines, it is difficult to get the two to work together effectively. Screenshot of game in action :
