What open source games do you play?
I'm a big fan of Flare, and it was a sleeper hit for me because I didn't grow up with games like Diablo. It's open-source, and while it has a pretty short campaign in the vanilla version, it has a lot of fan-made campaigns and mods. It's not the most engaging game I've played, but it's fun to zone out to while listening to podcasts.

Unity merges with IronSource, an ad company. Time for gamedevs to consider Godot?
Therefore, if a game has to use an off-the-shelf engine, at least make it an open-source engine like FLARE or O3DE. If you're picking libraries, use something permissively licensed, so you don't have to try to negotiate a commercial license to combine something with a copyleft, like recently happened to the remaster of the old Blade Runner point-and-click adventure game. Weird licenses mix together about as well as fish sauce and cake frosting.

Ask HN: Favourite Open Source Game?
> Dungeon Crawl
This is a favorite. And just to add, after I got a bit tired of roguelikes I tried out Flare and got hooked on the old version in my distro's repos. Later I found it is still under active development and really fun, with a greatly improved base campaign and community mods available as well.
Be sure to get the AppImage rather than whatever might be in older repos if you're running Linux.

The Rise and Fall of the LAN Party
Recently, my friends and I recreated our old LAN parties. Went up to a cabin in the woods, brought some cheap network switches, and had everyone install OpenRA (https://www.openra.net/, open red alert), and had a blast, even with everyone on laptops (mac/win). You can still do this in 2024 and it's worth it!

Ask HN: What older games are you playing through?
After the movies, I wanted to experience Dune 2 again (the pirate sites have it, along with patches to make it playable on modern OSes or Crossover). It was arguably the first mass-market real-time strategy game. There's also OpenRA for C&C, Red Alert, and Dune 2K: https://www.openra.net/
I understand Square is re-making FF7 in a multi-part release over several years (not sure why it takes so long)? https://ffvii-remake-intergrade.square-enix-games.com/en-us/ Once it's all out, I might play through that again just for nostalgia's sake (and for the soundtrack, of course! Twenty years later, I still have Aeris's Theme stuck in my head from time to time)
