Bungie Devs Atmosphere 'Soul-Crushing' Amid Layoffs, Cuts, Fear of Sony Takeover
You can play the original Marathon(s) on Mac, Windows, and Linux now thanks to Aleph One [0]. There's also new scenarios for the engine still being released, like Apotheosis X which came out last year [1].

If you’re reading this then go play the original Marathon trilogy by Bungie. One of the best boomer shooters out there with a fantastic sci-fi story!

Can you tell me about games that are only published on their own websites?
Marathon. Bungie doesn't sell the game anymore, but they did upload it to the internet. I linked to Aleph One Sourceport instead though since the original doesn't work on Windows natively.
-
Never played Marathon before, but I was very inspired by the New Marathon trailer so i made this poster. Definitely going to be reading into some Marathon lore! And giving the originals a go if i can get my hands on them :)
The originals are free and work on mac, pc and linux. If you have an xbox there is one there too. https://alephone.lhowon.org/

Quake Brutalist Jam II
> Personally, I prefer https://github.com/Novum/vkQuake because it allows disabling texture smoothing.
All hardware-accelerated Quake source ports that I'm aware of allow you to disable texture smoothing, going all the way back to the original GL Quake (if not earlier).
It was historically set through the console (rather than through a graphical menu), via the `gl_texturemode_ command
On modern hardware capable of trilinear filtering, the appropriate texturemode to disable texture smoothing (which keeping the other niceties of hardware acceleration was
gl_texturemode "GL_NEAREST_MIPMAP_LINEAR"
For the Ironwail engine, which is the currently preferred Quake source port for modern 3D hardware, options on whether or not to use texture smoothing (and other "retro" aesthetics like whether to use square or circular particles) are things that can be toggled in the video configuration menu.

Are there Open Source Games?
That last one is an open source engine for a trio of existing free games, but if we count open source engines for commercial games the amount of famous examples grows exponentially. All id Software games up to Doom 3 have had their engines made open source and have a huge number of modern versions available for all of them. So Arcane Dimensions, the greatest by a mile Quake campaign ever made, was completed just three years ago and you need a modern open source engine like vkQuake to play it - even the Quake Remastered engine can't handle the huge AD maps. There's also an open source Morrowind engine, an open source Freespace 1/2 engine (Diaspora above actually runs on this), an open source point and click engine called ScummVM that runs so many old adventure games it's almost an emulator...

Elevator Jank - why does this happen and how do I fix it?
A better solution - and one that lets you run the game at any arbitrary framerate you want - is to switch to a fork of quakespasm with framerate independent physics. I'd strongly recommend playing with Ironwail, but vkQuake is also a great option. Both of these ports offer significant performance improvements over vanilla quakespasm and some other nice rendering features.
