Calling all Game Developers! GOOD NEWS, now you can get more rewards with this contest. Till December 31st, the three (3) best entries each month will now receive a USD $300 GameStop gift card.

Want dramatic visual effects, smarter A.I., enhanced physics, and faster frame rates in game development projects? We've released the source code for the Smoke Tech Game Demo -- a framework to support n-way threading of game technologies. By correctly threading a game it can have more accurate physics, smarter AI, more particles, and/or a faster frame-rate.

Download the code, learn, and get rewarded for it. You can
-- show us how you used it or
--what you learned or
--how you can further improve it.

You can do this by submitting a video, screenshot, code sample, article / white paper, or a working demo about your experience or your ideas to improve the code.

Each month our panel of engineers and community managers will select the recipients of the gift cards from GAMESTOP* -- redeemable online worldwide for games, systems and accessories. Selected winners will also become an Intel® Green Belt Software Developer recognizing your contribution to our developer communities. Click here for more information on our loyalty program.

Winning entries will be judged on :
• Creativity and innovative ideas on using the smoke code
• modifying or enhancing the Smoke code.

Submit before the end of each month to qualify for that month’s incentives.

So learn something new, share your expertise, and show us how you turn up the heat! Good luck!
