The second RubyWeekend Game Contest is almost here! The weekend of  
July 25 - 27, compete with other Ruby programmers to create a game in  
2 days!

A theme will be announced on July 25 at the start of the contest  
period. Then, create a game based on the theme, working alone or in  
pairs (2 people). You can use any Ruby library available (Rubygame,  
Gosu, Shoes, etc.) for your game, as long as your game code is written  
in Ruby.

For more info as the contest date approaches, or to check out the  
winning games from RubyWeekend #1, check out the Contests forum on  
[rubygameforums.com](http://rubygameforums.com):

Sounds like a good time. I was ticked that I missed the first one, but  
I’ll  
definitely be in on this one.

ruby + games == fun
