An anonymous reader writes "REMIX THIS GAME is an experimental game design contest where participants can re-mix and re-cycle my free-software self-published PC game, XONG. XONG is available under permissive licenses allowing remixes and derivative works of the code, graphics, sound effects, and musicmdash;even for commercial use. The source code license is the GNU GPL Version 3, and the media is covered by the Creative Commons BY-SA license. No special software or programming experience are neededmdash;XONG has been packaged up so that you can just download the game and edit the graphics/code/music/sounds in place, and re-start the game to see your changes. Plus, it is available for Windows, Mac OS X, and GNU/Linux, so you can remix it on whichever OS you use, using whatever programs you like."pa href="http://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u=http%3A%2F%2Fgames.slashdot.org%2Fsto ry%2F10%2F07%2F18%2F227243%2FRemix-This-Game-mdash-a-Free-Software-Experiment" target="_blank" title="Share on Facebook"img src="http://a.fsdn.com/sd/facebook_icon_large.png"/a a href="http://twitter.com/home?status=Remix+This+Game+%26mdash%3B+a+Free+Sof tware+Experiment%3A+http%3A%2F%2Fbit.ly%2FczaU4T" target="_blank" title="Share on Twitter"img src="http://a.fsdn.com/sd/twitter_icon_large.png"/a/ppa href="http://games.slashdot.org/story/10/07/18/227243/Remix-This-Game-mdash-a-Free-Software-Experiment?from=rss"Read more of this story/a at Slashdot./ppa href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~at/__Oo7DYtRX9PnbPjmokMkmXAdpc/0/da"img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~at/__Oo7DYtRX9PnbPjmokMkmXAdpc/0/di" border="0" ismap="true"/img/abr/a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~at/__Oo7DYtRX9PnbPjmokMkmXAdpc/1/da"img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~at/__Oo7DYtRX9PnbPjmokMkmXAdpc/1/di" border="0" ismap="true"/img/a/pimg src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/Slashdot/slashdotDevelopers/~4/Pm7XY2qH_eI" height="1" width="1"/
