ScummVM. Do you hear it? Do you smell a new version? It's now here. And as usual and regularly, it is packed with tons of new features. Hold on, and take a look at the list: *Support for the *FREEWARE* adventure *Lure of the Temptress* (available for download [here](/downloads/)) *Seven other new supported games: *I Have no Mouth, and I Must Scream*, *Elvira 1 and 2*, *Waxworks* (Amiga version only) and 3 Sierra pre-AGI games for children *Two newly available ports: *iPhone* and *Maemo* *Support for the Mac version of *The Legend of Kyrandia* and the Amiga version of *Nippon Safes* *Better support for Sierra AGI games *Improved support for modern 64-bit systems *Support for FLAC encoded music in *Broken Sword 1* for the purists among you *Better support for non-English versions of games, including eastern languages *Sound compression for SAGA games *Much much more. See [the release notes](https://downloads.scummvm.org/frs/scummvm/0.11.0/ReleaseNotes) for the full list Unfortunately, PlayStation 2 and GP32 ports will not be released with this version, since we don't have any maintainers for these ports currently. Enough reading, go and grab it at [our downloads page](/downloads/)! PS. `0110b = 6`
ScummVM continues to leap forward in a leap year, and we are pleased to announce the next shiny bugfix release of the project. As usual, it holds a number of improvements, it's more stable, and it should bring you even more fun than 0.11.0. We fixed the digital iMUSE system (better *COMI* experience), *King's Quest 4* bugs were squashed, and support for fanmade AGI games has been improved; *Lure of the Temptress*, *Inherit the Earth* and *I Have no Mouth* all work better since we fixed several crashes, lock-ups and all such buzzwords. As a special bonus we are glad to announce the return of the **BeOS** port and the deeply missed **Playstation 2** port. For a more comprehensive list of improvements you are welcome to visit [the release notes](https://downloads.scummvm.org/frs/scummvm/0.11.1/ReleaseNotes), but for those demanding to play, the latest and greatest version of ScummVM waits for you right on [our downloads page](/downloads/)!
...on a moving ship and you've got no recollections on how you got there. Can you find your way around when you're [*Lost in Time*](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Lost_in_Time)? Same procedure as last time: Get your copy of *Lost in Time* and a [daily build](/downloads/#daily) of ScummVM, then report all bugs to [our bug tracker](http://bugs.scummvm.org/) and submit screenshots to [our patch tracker](https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=add&group_id=37116&atid=418822).

Have fun, and good luck (you'll need it ;P).
Do you know what a fabulous time we had last year participating in the Google Summer of Code? OK, you don't have to answer that, it's a rhetorical question. Fact is, it was **fabulous**! So fabulous we thought we'd apply again. And Google is so fabulous that they've elected ScummVM to take part again. Fabulous. (overuse of some words purely intentional). So, where are you going to spend this summer\*? Again some exotic beach? Perhaps this year on Monkey IslandTM? Well if you are a [student](http://code.google.com/opensource/gsoc/2008/faqs.html#0.1_student_eligibility) and want to make a buck this summer (more accurately $4500 US of them), Google is organizing the absolute Open Source recruitment drive, also known as the [Google Summer of Code](http://code.google.com/soc/2008/)! The program is designed to create an incentive for students to participate in Open Source projects, by providing guidance and economic support. What's more, your favorite project [ScummVM](http://www.scummvm.org/) is proud to be participating! Think about it. Have you ever thought about contributing to a large Open Source project like ScummVM but were intimidated to do so? With the Summer of Code opportunity, you can put your skills at work under close cooperation with our mentors. They'll help you ease in the team, plan the task ahead of time with you and guide you all along. To get things started, you have to pitch us your idea. Take a look at our [Open Tasks](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/OpenTasks) page for some suggestions. Then visit the [Google Summer of Code](http://code.google.com/soc/2008/) website, read up on the [FAQ](http://code.google.com/opensource/gsoc/2008/faqs.html) and check out the [application guide](http://code.google.com/opensource/gsoc/2008/faqs.html#0.1_student_apply). Now, hurry up! You've got until **March 31**, so get cracking! \*: Summer in the northern hemisphere definition :-)
**UPDATE: The GSoC deadline was extend to April, 7th! The [GSoC timeline](http://code.google.com/opensource/gsoc/2008/faqs.html#0.1_timeline) should be updated soon to reflect this.** Do you enjoy the fabulousness of ScummVM? You still have a chance to add to it by participating in its development. Prerequisities: ScummVM, students, and their free time and desire to take part in the development of one of the most successful open source projects. Whereas we don't have a problem with first item, the latter two aren't in a desired quantity this year. So, it is your last chance to help us make ScummVM even better and get paid for it! The deadline of the Google Summer of Code (we reported it earlier) for student applications is drawing closer. Officially it is today, March 31st (although a deadline extension seems likely). We added several new existing tasks to [Open Tasks list](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/OpenTasks), and we revised some of the old ones. Take a look now and apply. Note that your first application draft doesn't have to be perfect. You have time till April 10th to improve upon it (see the [GSoC timeline](http://code.google.com/opensource/gsoc/2008/faqs.html#0.1_timeline)). See you in the applications list!
...and the finger points to you! Or to be precise to Zanthia, youngest of the Kyrandian Mystics. But since she is the one you play in ScummVM's newest supported adventure [*The Legend of Kyrandia: Book Two: Hand of Fate*](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/The_Legend_of_Kyrandia:_Book_Two:_Hand_of_Fate) that is not a big difference. So grab your copy of *The Legend of Kyrandia: Book Two: Hand of Fate* and a [daily build](/downloads/#daily) of ScummVM to help her save Kyrandia. Since we are not finished with supporting every feature, there are still some missing: Currently we support only the DOS CD-ROM version. Another thing missing is support for the in-game GUI, so saving is possible only via hotkeys. Check out the hotkey section of our [README](http://scummvm.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/scummvm/scummvm/trunk/README?view=markup) on how to do it. And last but not least we do not support MIDI output, so make sure you use AdLib as "Music Driver". Of course all bugs should be reported to [our bug tracker](http://bugs.scummvm.org/). Make sure you got all required [datafiles](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Datafiles#Legend_of_Kyrandia.2C_The:_Hand_of_Fate) before you report a bug though. For further information, check out the [bug submission guidelines](/faq/#question.report-bugs).

It will be damn fun for you and him! Procedure for playing is as always: Grab your copy of *The Legend of Kyrandia: Book Three: Malcolm's Revenge* and a [daily build](/downloads/#daily) of ScummVM.

Even if we won SourceForge's [Community Choice Awards 2007](https://sourceforge.net/community/cca07) in the game section, ScummVM is not basking in the shadows of yesterday's triumphs. New games are continuously being worked on, and compatibility for supported ones is being constantly improved. In short, our team is going to sweat its way through the upcoming summer. We know you think we deserve to win without a fight, but let's do things by the book. So please, help now with the nomination phase and cast your [vote for 'Best Project for Gamers'](https://sourceforge.net/community/cca08-nominate?group_id=37116) (requires registration at SourceForge).
