O.a.d iz a realy great game. Also Luanti engine and Voxelibre game in it are realy awsome. What other open source game are outthere? Your favorite?

If you havent played this already, you are in for a treat:
Mindustry.
Every time this question comes up.
And I’ll never get tired of saying it.
- Battle for Wesnoth is one of my favorite turn-based strategy games.
- Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup makes a whole day disappear when I play it.
- Tales of Maj’Eyal is another, slightly more graphically rich roguelike. I haven’t played it too much, but it seems like there’s quite a lot of content to it.
- The Ur-Quan Masters… I don’t even know how to categorize it. It’s tough as nails, but the art style is rich, and the worldbuilding draws you in.
Any others I would have mentioned are already in other comments.
Oh damn! I hadn’t heard of Tales of Maj’Eyal. That looks awesome, and it’s available on Linux.
- Beyond All Reason (Supreme Commander, Total Annihilation clone)
- Warzone 2100
- Liero
- Hedgewars (Worms clone)
- OpenTTD (especially JGRPP fork)
- GZDoom / Woof / DSDA and other DOOM 1 and 2 source ports
And some that require original assets:
- OpenMW (The Elder Scroll: Morrowind engine replacement)
- OpenXcom (especially OXCE and Brutal-OXCE forks, they all have great mods, like XCom Files, Harmony, XPiratez)

Xonotic is fun, kind of brings back the nostalgia gameplay of DukeNukem and Quake
it’s lightweight and still looks pretty good, and you can have plenty of fun fighting bots, surprised more people haven’t mentioned it
My personal top 4 favorites, in no particular order, are:
- SuperTuxKart
- SuperTuxAdvance ( has a windows download and I’m not smart enough to figure out how to set up and run a version for Linux outside of using WINE or Proton and is pretty WIP )
- Luanti ( specifically VoxeLibre )
- Mindustry ( liked it enough to buy it on Steam to.support the devs )
I know OP already mentioned #3, but you know.
Also, if we could include things like OpenGOAL ( which relies on having files from the Jak and Daxter games ), I’d include that since I just got roughly back to where I left off on Jak II before I lost my memory card. Though that’s cheating since it relies on copyrighted proprietary files.
I’ve been playing so much Mindustry this Summer. I didn’t even realize it was open source when I bought it but that was a fun fact to find out.
OpenRCT2 is really great, if you count that
space station 14 and Mindustry are both excellent games.
My favorite open source game is by far Ring Racers
OpenTTD
CDDA and Veloren are some that I have played lately.
Bitburner
It’s a programming idle/incremental game. Has a bit of a learning curve (not bad if you already know how to code) but it is my favorite programming game. It scratches so many itches and it really invites players to explore. There are even secret achievements you can only get by messing with the source code and rebuilding it!
Huh. Why is that open source?
You love to see it. Thank you for the link!
They made some of the C&C games open source a few months ago.
I saw that EA (boo) gave the games away, but I didn’t know they open sourced them. That’s awesome!
Nethack by an astronomic margin.
