Probably this is too ambitious and I have to come up with a new plan soon ...
but here is what I have in mind now:

Name: I.F.F.O (Independent Force For Order) *
Genre: "UFO (allusion in title) - Enemy Unknown"-esque ... with FPS elements
Language(s): C++
Dimensions: 2D (global) and 3D ("field trips")
Rendering: OpenGL
Input: Win32 API
Sound: Audiere (2d sound only)
UI: Homebrew, too

Graphics: GIMP
Modeling: Blender
Music: I hope my brother produces something cool ... Line 6 - TonePort (afaik)
Sound Editing: Sound samples will be a huge problem

Snacking: Soup ... with lots of pasta for the calories. Probably some bananas.


* unfortunately this is the result of a google-search:
International Fishmeal and Fish Oil Organisation
So maybe I'll call it G.O.F instead (German Order Force) **

** ... crap: Goblet Of Fire (I think coming up with a name is a huge problem, too)
Given enough eyeballs, all mysteries are shallow.

MeAndVR

Name: To Be Announced(No Idea)
Genre: To Be Announced(No Earthly Idea)
Language(s): C++
Dimensions: Game could be isometric-style 3D, with a 2D stuff.
Rendering: Direct3D9/D3DX9
Input: DirectInput
Sound: DirectSound
UI: A state of the touch-sensitive screen(IE: No Idea, probably D3D9 stuff)

Graphics: MSPaint, The GIMP, Blender(possibly)
Modelling: Blender
Music: Probably whatever's playing on your media player at time of play.
Video Editing: Video Editing? What's that?
Snacking: Pizza, junk food and other stuff not wholly good for you.

Resolution: 1024x768
Colours: 2^24 great smelling colours

Game Slogan: 'Finally a game for programmers!' [smile]
"..."
Quote: UI: Homebrew, since I couldn't find anything acceptable for MDX/C#


What's wrong with the UI included with DXUT? It even does correct international text input, which most other UIs don't do.
enum Bool { True, False, FileNotFound };
