RollCageX

Some of you might recall the old games RollCage and RollCage: Stage II by Psygnosis Ltd. They were great games, they had the weapons, tracks and cars. Not to mention a great soundtrack. Well there was never a third incarnation, so it was decided that a Open Source Development was needed to fill this space. So the dream RCX, RollCageX was born.

We are still in the planning stages, but a few things have been finalised. Mainly the name, which as you know is RCX or RollCageX. The game engine is still being decided on, we have looked into a few open source engines. But it is looking more and more likely that we will develop the RollCageX engine from scratch. The sound is going to be a combination of a few libraries mainly MPlayer and the Music will be taken from MOD’s or some Open Source alternatives. The development is going to be cross-platform as the game engine will support both Linux/Unix and Win32, and will hopefully be written in C++.
