Sure, if you want to come back screaming after one week.

There is something that lets us keep on working on KDE Games. Our strength is 
that we do not do something because it's "in", but because we like what we're 
doing. We do what we do because we want to make a difference.

There is a saying that passion is a poor substitute for incompetence. So if we 
want to make a difference, we need to update our technological platform. 
KGameRenderer and KScore2 are only the first basic steps. (BTW KScore2 has 
some serious design flaws. More work on this will occur this weekend.)

I opened another wikipage at [1] where we can collect ideas on what our idea 
of the future of KDE Games is. Please add your ideas.

Greetings
Stefan
