Hi folks,

A few people from Germany had the idea one could create a free and  
open-source program that allows users to create simple 2D RPG games by  
just doing some point’n’click and more complex ones via some  
intergrated scripting, resembling Enterbrain’s famous “RPG Maker”  
series. We however want to make the program (as stated above)  
open-source and free as in freedom and free beer, and better (of  
course!). Currently we’re four more-or-less active coders and looking  
for some more devs who want to work on the project as well. Note we’re  
definitely _not_ looking only for experienced programmers, but we  
appreciate any newbies who want to dive into the deeper levels of Ruby  
coding as well. You should, however, know basic Ruby programming, so  
acting with “classes”, “methods”, “inheritance” and the like isn’t  
completely new for you and of course you should be willing to learn  
something new^^.

We currently have a project website at  
[http://devel.pegasus-alpha.eu/projects/openrubyrmk](http://devel.pegasus-alpha.eu/projects/openrubyrmk), but the project  
sourcode is mirrored over to GitHub as well:  
[https://github.com/Quintus/OpenRubyRMK](https://github.com/Quintus/OpenRubyRMK)

So, if some of you are interested in working on this, drop a private  
mail to me (sutniuq AT gmx DÖT net) or join us at #OpenRubyRMK on  
[freenode.net](http://freenode.net) (I’ll try to be permanently online the next few days, but  
if I cannot you probably meet some other devs there). You can also  
make a post in our shiny new forums at  
[http://devel.pegasus-alpha.eu/projects/openrubyrmk/boards](http://devel.pegasus-alpha.eu/projects/openrubyrmk/boards) (but you  
have to register first before you can post).

Finally, please note that the OpenRubyRMK (that’s the name of the  
project right now) is in a very, very young phase of development. We  
more or less just finished brainstorming and started coding, but  
wheather you look at this as an advantage or disadvantage is up to  
you–it’s easy to bring in new ideas right now, but there isn’t much  
code to work on right now (but hopefully soon!).

Valete,  
Marvin

Just to avoid some questions that will come up over and over, here’s a  
link to our wiki that describes what to do to properly become a  
developer:
