Get Involved! (a.k.a. Help Wanted)

Interested in helping out? We welcome anyone who wants to get involved. There's a range of things you can do, calling for a variety of different skills. If you are interested in pitching in, get in touch with us via the contact page.

We're currently looking for help in the following areas:

Linux developers

Bitfighter compiles in Linux, but we need people with expertise in creating packages for various distros.

Web developers

The new website is a significant improvement over what was here before, but it still has some rough edges. We need someone to go through and add a bit more polish. Also, there are several neat features we could add to the website, such as a level upload and comments section. The site is running Drupal CMS, so if you have any experience with that and want to get involved, you're welcome!

Screen shots

We need more/better screen shots. Screen shots should be 800x600, and include a suggested caption. (Tip: if you edit your Bitfighter INI file, and set the WindowScalingFactor=1.0, the playable area will be exactly 800x600.) If you have any great shots you want to contribute, please contact one of the devs, and we'll credit you on the screen shots page.

Wiki

Work on an existing article, create a new one, or help organize what we've got.

Levels

If you've created a smoking hot level, and want to submit it for inclusion in future releases, that would be great. Any levels that improve on those currently distributed with the game will be considered, but we'll give priority to game types that have fewer levels.

Promotion

Ideas on how to promote the game? We'd love to hear them!

Testers/Players

Most of all, we need people to host servers and play!
