YAMC? Yet another Minecraft clone??? Well Terasology (previously called "Moving Blocks") sure looks like one:
But besides looking like a pretty good YAMC, it actually promises to deviate from the boring Minecraft routine and mentions the pretty well liked games Dwarf Fortress and Dungeon Keeper as inspirations for its planned game-play :)
Code is under the Apache license, however the current pixel textures are non-free. But if this takes off, those should be relatively easy to replace with really free ones ;)
Oh and you can run it via Java directly from your browser (I had a black void as a world under Linux though... so your mileage might vary also).

Summer Shorts #3
"Summer?" you ask? Well.. I'ts warm in Berlin.*
Also a warning: this article is 80% development, 31.5% art and 18% games.
FreeGameDev Forums now have Spanish and Swedish/Danish/Norwegian subforums. Should we add some more? Read this then write here.
The 2.0 OpenClonk release brings higher resolution for the terrain, which makes the game look a lot better. Read the full changelog here.
Check out the Blendswap Military Vehicles Contest entries:
I'm amazed. But that's just me. I have a thing for mechs. Alot even.
Did anybody know of these CC-BY-SA-licensed WebGL tutorials? This dog told me about them.
* Speaking of Berlin, Germany. There was a little game dev jam in Berlin . Two of the prototypes are open source! (Hubwar and Nodehack)

DungeonHack/Godhead Demo Ultimatum
DungeonHack aka Godhead imposed an ultimatum on itself: two weeks for finishing a gameplay demo using the Lips of Suna engine.
Should the demo not be finished by that time, the development team will commit Seppuku.
Just kidding. :)
It's refreshing to see an open project put some pressure on itself. I'm looking forward to the results of this.
