I’m usually a fan of open source games but rarely do they manage to be actually great. People like giving recommendations like Super Tux Kart that haven’t aged well and don’t play well. What are some open source games that are legitimately good that I’ve missed?
My favorites are:
-
Mindustry
-
Sonic Robo Blast 2 Kart
-
Powder Toy
-
GZDoom (and all the amazing mods for it)
-
Veloren (even though it’s still in alpha)
Adding to this:
Yes the interface is a mess. But it’s ridiculously deep once you get into it.
Oh my goodness, yes! I spent hundreds of hours playing this as a kid. Angband too.
Did you ever finish it?
I wish! I can’t even be sure I got past level 50. I was young haha.
I think I only managed to get past the dungeons couple of times and get to the first open space. I tried getting back to it later but learning all the rules about amulets and scrolls wasn’t that fun the second time.
I only got so far based on pure RNG and nothing more.
The dark mod is amazing.
Xonotic is my favorite shooter too date. Just start it up and jump into an instaglib game for grapple hook sniper fun. The other game modes are good too though.
Tales of Maj’Eyal is a great little game if you’re an rogue-like fan! I played so many hours of that game a few years back, it’s seriously great!
