I am wondering do you know of a game similar to https://www.forestapp.cc/#features the idea is to lock your phone and reward you for not using it.

I know the best solution would be to just leave my phone, but....

Someone recommended Feudal Tactics for Android the other day and I've been hooked ever since.

This map here has prevented me from falling asleep yesterday. In my first attempt I ended up holding the north with a crusader stationed at the choke point against brown who held the south. But their army starved and in my naïveté I pounced on him to prevent my own starvation only to leave an opening for them to enter my territory and ultimately win the game.

I kept thinking about how I could have been more methodical and reached an equilibrium that let me gather more resources.

I ended up replaying that map (losing several times) to reach the same state. But this time their army didn't starve. Mine didn't either but we had a crusader against a crusader and no way to get around it.

I ended up gathering a ton of resources and taking a note out of their book. I opened up a small path form them to accomodate their whole army and closed it afterwards and used the opened up way to now more methodically conquer their lands.

Felt good.

Swarm simulator is an open source idle game:

Quetoo development officially began in January 2007. But really, Quetoo was born out of a dorm room in the late 1990s — a time when Quake wasn’t just a game, it was an obsession. In the early 2000’s, the open source release of the Quake engine taught a generation how to write code, how to build maps and map compilers, how renderers worked, and how to think in 3D. For many, us included, Quake was a doorway to lifelong friendships and careers in software development or game design.

We just released Update 3.1 for our FOSS multiplayer cooking game Hurry Curry! with a new map voting system for multiple players, an updated lobby and tons of new improvements!

Warzone 2100 is an excellent classic real-time strategy (RTS) game that continues living on thanks to the open source community, with a huge new release out.

Inspired by the classic stealth game series Thief, the free and open source project The Dark Mod has a new release out.

The SuperTux Team is pleased to announce the stable release of version 0.7.0! You may wonder what took us so long to develop another release. Over the past couple of years, we’ve made dozens of changes and improvements to the game, bringing it to a much more polished state. As such, this is likely one of the biggest releases since Milestone 2! Despite that, SuperTux remains the trusted run’n’jump game as you know well… but with this update, it should bring it into a much more finishable state moving forward.

Here are some of the most notable changes since the previous release:

• Brand new sprites and abilities for Tux: slope sliding, strong buttjumping, rock rolling, and crawling
• Revamped graphics for most backgrounds, tiles, objects, and badguys
• Complete level design + story rework of the Story Mode, Revenge in Redmond, and Bonus Island I
• Not only new NPCs (e.g: Granito) and enemies (e.g: DiveMine, Fish, and Corrupted Granito), but also revamps for numerous enemies such as: GoldBomb, Igel, Ghoul, and both bosses (Yeti and Ghost Tree)
• New music
• Level editor revamp
• Local multiplayer mode
• New gameplay mechanics such as glinted enemies, keys, the item pocket, and unlockable bonus islands via Tux Dolls
• Many internal improves and code refactoring, such as moving to SimpleSquirrel
• Improvements to compilation/porting, including CMake refactor, Android revival, and Flatpak builds

And many more changes and bugfixes not listed here! Really, check the game out to see all the changes!

Thank you so much for the patience everyone had regarding this update. Feel free to report any bugs to our GitHub. We appreciate everyone’s support in keeping this game alive! Happy SuperTuxing! – The SuperTux Team

Hey everyone 👋. I just wanted to share a little personal project that grew a bit more than I initially planned.

The original idea was simply to build a game so I could play Parchis (Ludo) with my family, as it’s a classic in our household. I ended up building the whole thing entirely through "vibecoding" (AI-assisted coding) because I wanted to see how far I could push current AI tools.

The result is a full web multiplayer game (React/Vite frontend + Node/Express/Socket.io backend with SQLite to store game data).

If anyone is curious or wants to spin it up on their local network to play with friends/family: 🔗 Repo: https://codeberg.org/baner/parchis (it has a docker-compose.yml ready to go in seconds).

⚠️ A big warning about security: As I mentioned, I completely built this relying on AI, and it was initially meant as a home project. I am not a cybersecurity expert by any means. While I have briefly exposed it to the internet a couple of times to play with remote relatives, my absolute recommendation is to host it ONLY on your local network (LAN) or behind a VPN (like Tailscale/Wireguard). The nature of AI-generated code means it's probably full of vulnerabilities that I haven't caught. Play at your own risk if you decide to open ports to the wild web! 😅

This is also my first project using a monorepo structure and publishing a Docker image for others to deploy. If you take a look and see something horrible (or something that works surprisingly well haha), all feedback is super welcome. I hope someone finds it fun for a local game night!
