OpenRA: Red Alert, Command and Conquer, Dune 2000, Rebuilt for the Modern Era

• OpenRA

  256 14,143 9.6 C#

  Open Source real-time strategy game engine for early Westwood games such as Command & Conquer: Red Alert written in C# using SDL and OpenGL. Runs on Windows, Linux, *BSD and Mac OS X.

  

IMO this: https://github.com/OpenRA/OpenRA/blob/fe129956bb1b3f7e3231c1... is the most exciting part.

Tiberian Sun remains my favourite C&C game. I know it was rushed and had some bugs but... I mean: The Forgotten? Absolutely there should be a mutant commando walking around with a portable railgun, physics be damned!

I like C&C3, but it isn't TS and I feel it abandoned a bit the direction TS was taking us.

• Vanilla-Conquer

  Vanilla Conquer provides clean, cross-platform builds of the C&C Remastered Collection and the standalone legacy games.

  

Also check out https://github.com/TheAssemblyArmada/Vanilla-Conquer which is a modernization of the original code (!), rather than a rewrite with liberties.

• awesome-game-remakes

  4 656 5.9

  Actively maintained open-source game remakes.

Here's a nice list of open source remakes of commercial game engines in the spirit of OpenRA: https://github.com/radek-sprta/awesome-game-remakes

Note a lot of these like OpenRA are reimplementations of the game engines but want the original game media. A good deal work with GoG or Steam releases of the old games while some will want original media. For ones that want original media a lot of old game ISOs can be found on the Internet Archive.
