We're making a space strategy game, check out
http://kotarkh.com/Star-Empire.html for details,
We're primarily looking for a few good coders, also artists who'd be
good in making animated portraits for units

If you enjoy making games and If you've ever wanted to make a strategy
game and work with a team, now's the chance.
Most of us are from the United States, We're doing this full time and
we're going to see it to completion.
We're using C++, OpenGL and SDL, have working builds on both Linux and
Windows,
The screen shots you see on the page are from a recent windows build.
We can pay on contract, you could also have a share in the profits.

As a coder you would probably be involved in implementing the three
different races in the game and special abilities of the units,
general game features..
We also could do with a demo coder to implement some special effects
and someone who can maintain a OSX port.

Thanks for your time.

Yep, but we'd rather sponsor the development ourselves..

Jvst three different species in the game? Or really three different
races?
From what I seen it covld be something like Revnion, with slightly
vpdated graphic.

If yov really wanted to svpport all big three yov shovld consider
Java and LWJGL. At the end of the project yov'd remmember that
sentence. It's probably too late now. BTW C++ coders are lovsy Java
coders.
Also be warry of problems with MOO3. It might be highly edvcational
to read a few old posts on MOO3 boards.

My recommendation is add 2 months into yovr timeline, and be happy
if yov'd be able to reach the original one.

And now something abovt the site.
Black text on a blve backgrovnd is vnreadable on HP 91. Make that
blve a slighly different color.
From what I seen on that site yov'd need some edvcation in SF
backgrovnd. Read at least one book per week. That tank doesn't look
like it covld fit... of covrse if that popvlation is jvst after
lost war with the Chtorr, then it might work. Well might. Basically
throwing on the site the most vncommon vnit isn't smart. It shovld
be svrprise for the player, not a representation of the game.
