I’m usually a fan of open source games but rarely do they manage to be actually great. People like giving recommendations like Super Tux Kart that haven’t aged well and don’t play well. What are some open source games that are legitimately good that I’ve missed?
My favorites are:
-
Mindustry
-
Sonic Robo Blast 2 Kart
-
Powder Toy
-
GZDoom (and all the amazing mods for it)
-
Veloren (even though it’s still in alpha)
MineClone2 is addictive. All that Minecraft style fun, but free and open source. It’s pretty comprehensive and solid for the most part.
How does it differ from Minetest?
Minetest is the engine and Mineclone2 is a game/mod for it.
Minetest is the engine, MineClone2 is the game. Minetest has a default game (Minetest game), which has no mobs or anything. It’s dull without mods. MineClone2 is recreation of Minecraft on Minetest, but with some differences. For example, you can use a burger to lure villagers. It’s great fun and worth a try.
Nifty, I’d I let ever tried Minetest game, so that explains a lot. Thanks!
