C is one of the most used programming languages in history. Though it has long been outdated by its older brother C++, the concepts in C are featured in most other programming languages used today.
For this project we will be using C, with a little C++. Why? Well mostly because we are using the Quake 3 engine which was built using C and it would be such a pain in the ass to go through hundreds of pages of code to make the changes needed to switch it up.
Another advantage is that because C is so popular, we will be able to use free IDE software to develop the game, without having to make much of a sacrifice. This is an important aspect of this whole project, as not only is our budget vary limited, but we would also like to support GNU/Free Software projects.

Project Thunder Snake represents a new form of creative venture in the electronic entertainment world. The project goal is to create an original, commercial quality video game utilizing only free and open source software. We believe it will be possible to do this by exploiting the maximum potential of the Id Software Tech 3 GPL Engine. Check back frequently for news and project updates.
