I was wondering if anyone here plays free/open source games. Because Id open-sourced the Quake 3 engine, there has been a great proliferation of FOSS first person shooters based off the Q3 engine. There are also some non-Q3 games which are great.
My favorite FOSS games are
TremulousTremulous is a combination FPS/RTS based off of a modification of the Q3 engine. It is multiplayer only. You can play as human or alien. As either race, the goal is to get kills and to eventually destroy the other teams spawns. Very fun gameplay which relies a lot on teamwork and strategy.
SauerbratenI just discovered this today, and I have decided that it is awesome. An old school run 'n gun FPS based on a branch of the Cube (another FOSS game) engine, it has fast, addictive gameplay in the vein of Quake 3 but with better graphics and interesting editing features. Also has a simple single player option. Better graphics than Tremulous.
Does anyone else play FOSS games?
