Introducing GoOverThere, an open-source 3d frontend for GnuGo. At the moment, it only works on Linux, since I’m not too sure how to get pipe() and fork() equivalents on Windows. And there’s no GUI yet, it’ll just default to a 9×9 game against AI. Also, there’s no end-game handling, so you’ll probably have to just add up the score yourself. And although the source isn’t *deliberately* obfusticated, it’s still pretty opaque in places. I’ll probably fix some/all of these in later releases.

The good news is, it uses GTP to communicate with gnugo, so it could potentially be used with online multiplayer things like IGS or KGS.

You can download it here. You’ll need gnugo and libirrlicht-dev installed; just run make in the directory you extracted it to and it should compile and run fine. Emphasis on “should”.
