The Unreal Tournament series has some of the best AI. They react and behave very human. In UT 2003 (or 2004 can't remember) they even respond to voice commands. There was even a programmed Unreal Tournament bot that passed the turing t

Checkout www.polycount.com. It is mainly a community of 3D game artists, but there are a lot of talented people there who do other game related art. There is a hiring forum section where you can post the job.

Have you looked at something like the iPad app codea? http://twolivesleft.com/Codea It uses LUA for the scripting language, and a really nice IDE. We also did something similar, except it is all visual programming (I know y

In our app users can sign in with Facebook, or make their own app specific account. We don't force users to use facebook. A lot of our good (active) users are ones who make a custom account. Another benefit for us offering an option is

We're actually working on an iPad app that lets people make games. Our behaviour system is not exactly programming, but it does teach about logic and help understand the concepts of programming. We have variables, loops, ifs.. then make it
