[lugaru] Learning from the source

[Ryan C. Gordon]

If you're looking for really good examples of well-built commercial  
games, Quake 3's source code is beautiful. Even the ugly parts.

I think it's an excellent example of balance of code quality and the  
need to ship.

Lugaru would not be a good starting codebase to learn from.
