I am a software engineering student at the University of Western Ontario. I would like to participate in the Google Summer of Code, because I have had this idea in my head ever since I first started playing Strategy Games and want to see it realized. I am just taking advance of GSoC to get my self to start working on this project.

Experience

Most of my work experience comprises of web application development with PHP/MySQL. Also I have experience working with C/C++. I have worked individually and within teams. Most of my web development projects were individual. I have experience working within ticket based system with SVN and Trac on a C/C++ code base where I created a version testing application. Moreover I spend some time hacking personal projects on my own. I am a self learner and learn technologies for requirement to finish my projects.

This is my first year in Google Summer of Code program.

Development Strategy

Overview

I propose to flesh out a procedural world generator (PWG) that consists of generated characters, stories, timelines, and maps. PWG first goal is to provide players with a world of characters and stories that they can use to improve their skills, get ideas for writing campaigns, and allow users to experience different units. Secondly PWG hopes, in the future, to provide players with a back drop world where then they can expand on to create new stories separate from the Wesnoth World.
