As I’ve written before, Thousand Parsec is a free and open source project aiming to create 4X space empire building strategy games similar to Stars! and Galactic Civilizations. We are currently running an AI programming competition. So, if you know the fine craft of writing code and would like to take a shot at game programming, be sure to check out the official competition page and join us. Who knows, you might even win one of the cool prizes. The preferred source code languages for submissions are C++, Python and Ruby. But you can use any language of your choice. The deadline for submissions is 31^st of March 2007.

Update: The deadline date was wrong. You have one month of extra time than previously reported.
