What is BoomingBang?


BoomingBang is a third person RPG Shooter game in which users have to use funny methods to knock the other team's software mascots out. The mascots include Tux, Kate, Wilber,OOo,Thunderbird, GNU and so on! This is a rather violent game. Might not be suitable for children under the age of 5. But, of course, everyone will enjoy this game.

Why BoomingBang?

I(Abhishek Indoria) have noticed that there are so less games available for XO Laptop, and rarely, any of them is funny. BoomingBang includes fun in quick thinking and it improves children' decision making ability.

How the idea of BoomingBang occurred?

BoomingBang, was merely a thought in January 2009 when I alone planned it out. In June, I found a friend to help me through it. But, soon, I had a team...an excellent team of youths who were willing to help me. We together named this group THE-PHOENIX-TEAM. Now, recently, one of our new group, FOSSFY(Free and Open Source Software For Youth) Foundation has evolved. BoomingBang is almost ready for the ALPHA V1 release, which is intended to be around Late October 2009.
