Re: Idea page for GSoC

So, I've meant to bring this up for a couple of years, but it's slipped 
my mind. I think one of the major problems with uptake on Crystal Space 
is that we don't have a lot of great showpieces that we can point to 
and say, "Look, here's this really cool project that was done with CS". 
I was thinking that perhaps, this year, we should think about foregoing 
development to the engine and focus on development of two components:

1) Tools (e.g. Ares)
2) Games

Specifically, in #2, I was thinking we should see if we can get a few 
suggestions for small, single-serving games. Then, if we can get a few 
members of the community to help with game assets, we can have the 
student focus on the development of the code for the game itself. This 
would help us in two ways - 1) it would give us nice games that could 
be used as demos for the project, and 2) it would give the student a 
lot of flexibility and creative control over his/her project.

Thoughts?
