Do you play open-source games? If yes, which games do you enjoy?

OpenTTD is certainly a good open-source game

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

So incredibly addictive

My top 3 best would be Widelands, Battle for Wesnoth and FreeOrion. But the ones that I play most of the time ae the simple quick games from KDE Games collection :)

0 A.D., Beyond All Reason, SuperTuxKart, and The Dark Mod are the four FOSS gaming projects that I find to be most impressive.

Oh my god, thank you for reminding me about SuperTuxKart. What an absolutely incredible game (it helps that I'm pretty good at it, whereas I'm awful at Mario Kart).

Super Tux Kart

Better than Mario Kart

Open spades is an underrated gem if you like multiplayer fps. It's like the old ace of spades beta with the 3 weapons, and destructible voxel terrain.

Didn't hear about that game but looks very nice on screenshots

I can’t figure out if there’s a way to bookmark threads in Lemmy. So I’m gonna be that guy and leave a comment so I can come back to this thread later to install all these 😄

You can save the this thread if you mean that

That is what I meant. Now I see the star button but I swear it wasn't showing for me on mobile before. Thanks!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

While the mobile version isn't flawless, the development is going very well. If you encounter any issues, feel free to open an issue on their GitHub repository, and they will try to fix it

Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup if you're into rogue-likes with a lot of depth, replayability and a healthy community.

1oom-fork (MOO1 port)
dune-legacy (dune2 port)

Open sky is pretty nice.

MIndustry is open source and free if you want to play single player.

Battle for wesnoth is pretty great!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

Cataclysm: Dark Days Ahead. Persistent procedural open world zombie survival sandbox roguelike, and the inspiration for Project Zomboid. SsethTzeentach did a review/ primer a few years ago, though the game changed quite a bit since then.

We have a OpenSourceGames community.

I think Xonotic and Unvanquished are pretty cool. Mindustry is very popular. Unciv and Thrive are probably lesser known but also very cool.

0ad Is both good looking, modern and fun. I would also second wesnoth.
