Does anyone know how to get sound working on WSL1 + VcXsrv?
Various old skool text adventure games are open source (-ish, in some cases). If you are already experienced with them then "Counterfeit Monkey" takes it to the next level with a great twist based on anagram-like magic/technology for turning objects into other things by adding/removing letters from their name: > Anglophone Atlantis has been an independent nation since an April day in 1822, when a well-aimed shot from…
bzflag! It carries this nice 90s-feeling in a multiplayer online world.
Haven't seen these two so thought I'd add them to the list. Minetest is a block building game engine (like minecraft) built around the idea mods add all content. There are a bunch of games built for it, and last I checked a active modding community. https://www.minetest.net/ The other is AlephOne, a engine to play all the Marathon games (story FPS, pre-halo bungie made games) along with a bunch more community created…

Screeps, the open source game for programmers. It’s really, really hard though. https://screeps.com/ Side note: I don’t think downvotes should be for comments you “don’t like” or even “disagree with”. Downvotes should be used to discourage people from posting bad content, but on HN we try to be a bit more objective about what “bad” is rather than “I don’t like it”.
that said, in a topic like this, can there be any bad comments? (other than someone throwing insults at a game or recommending a game that is not actually FOSS?)
so why not use downvotes for games that you played but didn't like?
let the most popular games rise to the top.
