My favorites:
I keep wanting to get into Pioneers / FreeCol, but it just doesn’t work for me. I know a lot of people love TuxKart and Rigs of Rods, but I can’t jive with driving games. And I feel that there need to be honorable mentions to Nethack, Dwarf Fortress, and Liberal Crime Squad.
Woah, thanks for the list of games! I basically knew only about Tux Kart.
You’re welcome! There’s a lot of great FOSS games - and I have to admit that having started from Windows, most of my knowledge originated from PortableApps.com. The games they list there are mostly FOSS, so it’s a decent launchpad into the world of FOSS gaming.
While YGO Omega is great, only some components are open source and so not FOSS. It also runs on Unity, that is not FOSS
…all of them excellent. Dwarf Fortress, while being the bee’s knees, is not open source.
Also try out Cataclysm: DDA. It’s open source, and possibly approaches Dwarf Fortress in scope and fun.
Shattered Pixel Dungeon is FOSS? I’ve never seen a paid FOSS app
I’ve seen some apps free on F-droid and paid in Play Store. Best of both worlds!
Shattered is a fork. The original Pixel Dungeon has a permissive license and allows selling modifications with source available
you can download it from github for free - missing the PC improvements like more quickslots and a larger inventory screen that can stay open while dungeoneering, but it’s the full game: https://github.com/00-Evan/shattered-pixel-dungeon/releases
specifically those improvements are for the paid steam release.
I see, thanks for clearing that up!
Yeah, the steam release is more of a “support the dev for some goodies” type of thing :-) Dwarf fortress on steam is also paid
