Make an HTML5 first person shooter by porting the Sauerbraten code to JavaScript along with new web-optimized art assets.
Note: Milestone 1 was completed successfully, the docs on this page may be out of date. See the project site in the links at the bottom for more current stuff.
=Milestone One=
* Gregor Koch (2 months)
** Create game maps (worlds inside which play takes place) and texture sets for the maps

* Lee Salzman (a couple of hours)
** Lee is the main dev in the Sauerbraten project, and wrote most of the physics and geometry code.
** If we find parts of the code that run particularly slowly in JavaScript, Lee can do a few hours of work to optimize them in a more web-friendly manner. This might be the difference between a game that runs ok and a game that runs fast.
==Duration==
* Ability to save levels and have them stored on the website
* Ability to view summaries of levels stored on the website and click to launch them
==Resource Requirements==
* Jeff Simmon (1.5 months)
** Jeff can produce sound effects and compose music. He is relatively junior however he has developed sound designs for full games in the past.
** Need to figure out the details of his involvement. He is interested but it depends on the number of sound files we need to produce

* Stock Libraries - In an effort to reduce cost and add some flexibility, some budget will be required. This is not to exceed $20,000 USD, it is expected to be significantly lower but this is the maximum until we can create a more accurate budget.
