This might be interesting for those who are into multiplayer and life in the USA. Don't ask me why they always come up with those restrictions but here is the link:

Meh, US only. That sucks.
Winner must enter into a standard IA publishing contract and adhere to all terms and conditions of that agreement.

And the prizes are not that appealing.
Still, nice find.

Well, it depends on how their publishing offer looks like in detail but i've seen worse. It's more about their restrictions.

By the way are the torque prices what they also used to be half a year ago? I was surprised that their 3d package with shaders is so costy.

It is nice that that community actually does things. They still have a useful and active newsletter (ours died quite quickly in comparison). They also have a lot of cross linked products.

By the way it's not only about their community as this contest is technology independent. It's about getting their InstantAction filled up with content. So if you have a nice multiplayer idea you can also do it with BlitzMax. In the end the game will be running in their own browser sandbox plugin.
