It's been a while since I've played it but mindustry is amazing https://github.com/Anuken/Mindustry
As well as supertuxkart, which I honestly like better than mario kart https://supertuxkart.net/Main_Page
I just downloaded tuxkart. About to give it a go. Mindustry looked to be a bit much for me
Edit: does anybody have recommendations for add-ons for stk?
Just the community I needed to find! I was literally about to close lemmy to go look for open source games and ports for Android.
I started Shattered Pixel Dungeon and was having a lot of fun with it. It is the first real Roguelike I think I have gotten into. It takes a bit of learning, but it still feels pretty accessible. Definitely worth the free download to see if you enjoy it
This inspired me to play Shattered Pixel Dungeon.
Hell yeah! I hope you enjoy. I haven't played a whole lot, but if you have any questions I will do my best
So very similar vein, uses many of the same mechanics and a lot of the same framework is Pathos. I think it's really well fleshed out even though I haven't managed to get very far. Amazing depth and mechanics but initially it felt like running into a brick wall for me. But the tutorials are very easy to read in the game and you can tweak a lot to become a god in different ways so you can test out and try to understand mechanics. I think it's great fun and kinda like a deeper, grander Shattered Pixel Dungeon!
Sounds like I need to try it at some point, thanks for the suggestion
Does osu lazer count?
Yeah, seems like the license is MIT.
I have been a long-lasting Sauerbraten player, although I only play it occasionally due to the low player base.
Apart from that, I have been playing OpenTTD, Mindustry and other open strategic games and I am looking for similar games. I have played a lot of other open source games that do not come in my mind as of now, I have been using Linux as my main OS for quite a long time.
Those are all great games! Sadly Urban Terror is not open source. https://www.urbanterror.info/forums/topic/33131-i-would-like-to-contribute-to-the-source-code/
The engine is, but the game built on top of it is not.
Oh, to be clear, I am not judging. Game dev is not easy to do. I am happy that any game exists. It just extra nice if it is also open source. I have also enjoyed playing Urban Terror. It's fun!
