Thorium – A Starship Bridge Simulator
Thorium is great; it's closer to a virtual tabletop for starship RPGs than a standalone game, built around creating interactive narratives. That sets it apart from the more straightforward game-style bridge sims, like Artemis[1] and EmptyEpsilon[2], which have scriptable scenarios with narrative elements but have more fundamentally game-focused mechanics.
All of these get used in a lot of fun ways for live events beyond their design, too. Thorium's "family tree" comes from interactive events at planetariums, and EmptyEpsilon, being open-source with an HTTP API and game-master screen for directly manipulating live game state and pretending to be ships, became a popular front-end for European LARPs.[3]

Ask HN: Favourite Open Source Game?
Empty Epsilon bridge simulator: https://github.com/daid/EmptyEpsilon
The game itself is fun, but the best stuff I've seen is it being reused, modified, and adapted for LARPs and crowdplay.
Out of Orbit is a great and ongoing example, a Finnish escape room-ish experience that also has a Twitch game putting stream chat in the role of the ship's AI: https://outoforbit.fi/ and https://www.twitch.tv/outoforbitgame/about
Empty Epsilon powers the game part, with integrations using its DMX interface and HTTP API to provide hardware interfaces and things like Twitch chat commands modifying the game state.

10 player LAN Party: What are some good games?
EmptyEpsilon - a free multiplayer bridge simulator. Each ship is typically crewed by 3-6 people, but you can run multiple ships in the same game or get mods that add/change roles.

Is there any current Co-op tank game with campaign (against AI enemies? Not RTS, not multiplayer, just driver and gunner doing missions in a campaign.
"the open source": Empty Epsilon. A little more complex of a simulation than Artemis, but feels much more limited from a mission standpoint, mostly due to lack of development from that aspect. Does away with the "Star Trek" feel of Artemis for a more industrial feeling.

Making a game in C++
If you want to look at an interesting open source C++ game project that (iirc) uses SFML, you could check out Empty Epsilon.

This open source game is being marked as proprietary
It's a modied bsd license from what I see. https://github.com/teeworlds/teeworlds/blob/master/license.txt

The spawned process exits almost immediately
The problem is that some games start without issues and stay alive and others exit with exit code 1 immediately. For example, Teeworlds 0.7.5 ( teeworlds.com ) works just fine but Battle for Wesnoth 1.16.6 ( wesnoth.itch.io/battle-for-wesnoth ) doesn't.

I made a grinding platformer with Linux, for Linux!
I've played both and am especially a big fan of Celeste. The shooting is similar to Teeworlds, I got the idea from that.

Richard Stallman – “The state of the Free Software movement” – April 13, 2022
Richard Stallman has a policy of putting his non-engineering works under a non-libre license (CC-BY-ND 3.0) [0] [1], so maybe he wouldn't have a problem with this non-libre game as the underlying code is libre, just not the assets.
In my opinion, this is one of the problems with Stallman's "moral authority" approach to the FSF. I would very much like to hear about these cases where a game's source is libre licensed but not it's content and see what Stallman actually has to say about it.
Not for nothing, but there are many network/online games that have both source and content libre licensed. Here are a few:
* Teeworlds - https://www.teeworlds.com/
* Minetest - https://www.minetest.net/
* Battle for Wesnoth - https://github.com/wesnoth/wesnoth
I'm sure there are many others of note but those are just the few that I have at least some passing familiarity with.

Almost Always Unsigned
The patch is completely bogus:
https://github.com/teeworlds/teeworlds/commit/4d529dcd2d0102...
Here it tries to avoid overflow by assigning the result of 32 bit arithmetic to a 64 bit type. That's a common mistake.
