Open Source/ Freeware Favorites
« on: August 23, 2010, 07:00:08 am »
I've recently gotten into open source/freeware games, and I would be interested in any recommendations from you guys. I currently have; Soldat, Smokin' Guns, The Kuma site, Black shades, Transcendence, Toribash, Scorched 3D, UFO Alien Invasion, Battleships Forever, Assault Cube, and the Battles of Wesnoth. So, any recommendations?

We may not be as brave as Gryffindor, as willing to get our hands dirty as Hufflepuff, or as devious as Slytherin, but there is nothing, nothing more dangerous than a little too much knowledge and a conscience that is open to debate

This should be in Other Games, not GD.

Currently I waste most of my time with Hedgewars and ADOM.

Also, the games from that "Toady" are very good.

We're Bay12er's. If there is a bug, we will find it, exploit it, and make a recursive statue out of it. Just look up Planepacked.

Instead of UFO AI, get UFO: The two sides

It's still in beta, but constantly updated. And it should work without original XCom too :)

Get Sauerbraten it is the newest game by the people that made cube 2. It Assault Cube is also a standalone mod from Cube 1.
If you ever get Sauerbaten find me as Spectr and I can introduce you to some good map makers. :D
