Just wanted to let everyone know about this awesome open source game called Super Mario War.

Super Mario War is a Super Mario multiplayer game.
The goal is to stomp as many other Marios as possible to win the game.
It's a tribute to Nintendo and the game Mario War by Samuele Poletto.

The game uses artwork and sounds from Nintendo games. We hope that this noncommercial fangame qualifies as fair use work. We just wanted to create this game to show how much we adore Nintendo's characters and games.

Features:
- Up to four players deathmatch fun
- a whole bunch of game modes (featuring GetTheChicken, Domination, CTF, ...)
- Comes with the leveleditor - you can create your own maps...
- ... and a lot of people did so. There are currently over 400 maps
- More fun than poking a monkey with a stick
- The whole source code of the game is available
- uses SDL and is fully portable to windows, linux, mac, ...
- CPU Players
- will make you happy and gives you a fuzzy feeling

The only problem is you cannot play this game online... yet. However, they are looking for xbox programers that would be interested in helping make netplay available. Ideally they'd like Super Mario Wars to be playable on Xlink Kai. If anyone is interested in helping them out, please contact them on their website: http://smw.72dpiarmy.com/

You can download the xbox version of the game through "the usual places"
