FIRST: Ultimate Robot Challenge is a video game system being written primary for Windows, but there are plans to port it later to Mac OSX compatibility. It will be written using Microsoft Visual C++ and may use either CrystalSpace or Unreal 2 (This is dependent on whether or not Epic will sponsor us). The idea for the game came from the ChiefDelphi.com community and the goal of the game is to spread the ideals of the FIRST Robotics Competition.

Major Features:
* Expandable
* Large player base
* Future LAN and On-line capabilities

Data Formats:
* Future use of LAN/Web. Protocal not yet determined.
* The Zip format will be used to group/compress a mixture of text, image, CAD, and DLL files.

Obstacles:
* Organizing the project amongst members who live across the United States.
* Interfacing current InnovationFIRST hardware, creating 4 wireless gameports.
* Writing the program to be able to run many different FIRST games.
* Loading a diversified group of robots for play

Discussions concerning the origins of the game and decisions that have been made can be found here: http://www.chiefdelphi.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=135. More information about FIRST can be found here: http://www.usfirst.org.

We do not intend to immediately host any game data, but it is a future possibility.

Demos and modules may be hosted on SourceForge.net for internal testing purposes only.

Many details are still in the works and depend upon things such as: sponsorship, willingness, and a web host. Check at the URL referenced above for up-to-date details.
