Ask HN: Favourite Open Source Game?
I really enjoy Cave Story, It's a very cute metroidvania with a lot of soul.

Made My Rust Remake Of Cave Story Engine Run On
On top of what u/alulalol said, there is an open source reimplementation of Cave Story, called NXEngine. Usually, you'd use it through the libretro port.

Free games that can be replayed/played for a while
Might look at Oolite for a free lower spec alternative to Elite, if that's your jam. Plenty of mods to work with as well.

What indie space sim games have a hidden, large community?
I was surprised, when I started recording videos for Oolite, by how many people were desperate for Oolite videos.

Just picked this up, the journey to Elite begins!
Many, many hours playing this one to death. And the C64 version before it, and the BBC versions (tape and disk) at my friends houses. And Oolite on the Mac. And I'm a founder backer of Elite Dangerous. And...and...

space sim for resource poor PC?
In addition to the other great recommendations on here, Oolite might also be worth a try. It's free and has tons of expansions modify your experience.

Getting wake data is terrible. Which gave me an idea! What about Witchspace Ripples?
Hmm, I guess that's one way to look at it. ED is all about the freedom of choice, after all. Though I still think OP's idea is interesting. Before playing ED, I've been playing Oolite for some time, and you can actually jump into the wakes left by the ships. So, to see this (or similar) mechanic in ED would be interesting.

Pimp My BBC Micro
Strong nostalgia whenever I see the BBC Elite opening screen!
These days we can re-live it easily in the browser: https://bbc.godbolt.org/?autoboot&disc=sth%3AAcornsoft%2FEli... Although I can also recommend "oolite": http://www.oolite.org/ which is an open source modernised elite with game play kept quite faithful to the original (I'm currently hooked on this and wasting more my life trying to get that "Elite" rating all over again)
What are some alternatives?
