I’m usually a fan of open source games but rarely do they manage to be actually great. People like giving recommendations like Super Tux Kart that haven’t aged well and don’t play well. What are some open source games that are legitimately good that I’ve missed?

My favorites are:

  • Mindustry

  • Sonic Robo Blast 2 Kart

  • Powder Toy

  • GZDoom (and all the amazing mods for it)

  • Veloren (even though it’s still in alpha)

  • Kaloi@lemmy.world

    Forge, the open sourced MTG client. It’s written in java, fully portable with an android version even. Full rules enforcement, an incredibly active dev community with the new sets implemented pretty quickly after release. I’ve honestly put more hours into just playing against the AI in 4v4 commander games than most steam games I own.
