■ 🕑 1. FOSS Games │ what is your favorite foss game? cataclysm:dda is pretty good. │ ├─■ 🕑 2. │ Do Nethack or DC:SS count? I love both of those games, even if │ they're... "lacking"... in modern sensibilities. │ │ Probably the FOSS games I play the most are Tetris in emacs and Gikopoi: │ and someone's working on making a Gikopoi client for emacs, written in │ emacs lisp, which is uhhh pretty unexpected?????? │ │ I kind of want to write a server for traditional games like cribbage in │ C and then make a client in emacs-lisp but I worry I'd never be able to │ find friends to play those trad games with ;_; Just a websearch for │ "backgammon emacs" is depressing enough as-is, (zero results), why │ bother writing several hundreds or thousands of lines of code to sit │ waiting in a lobby to play a game with no one.... ;_; │ │ It's not FLOSS by any means, but one of my favorite "free" online games │ is Power Bomberman: │ http://www.bombermanboard.com/viewtopic.php?t=1925&start=760 │ │ Definitely will check out cataclysm:dda later, thanks for the rec OP │ ├─■ 🕑 3. │ Sauerbraten is a classic, people still play it too. Don't know about │ AssaultCube but that used to be good too. I remember downloading that │ shit onto a USB in 7th grade and could play it anywhere, it was crazy. │ │ ├─■ 🕑 4. │ What about Xonotic? It's a really good FOSS arena shooter. │ ├─■ 🕑 5. │ i love cdda, i just love going with random characters and just trying to not die │ there's so much in that game its amazing │ ├─■ 🕑 6. FOSS? I love those │ My favorites are Moria, Sil and Sil Q. │ Angband feels too bloated. │ I love it when FOSS games focus on a tight experience that still feels │ it has "depth" to play. │ │ Here's a fun one: │ Shadow of the Wyrm. │ Another RPG roguelike, try it out lads │ ├─■ 🕑 7. │ infra arcana is good. i don't know if i'd say i dislike the 'downtime' of │ exploration in other roguelikes but it is refreshing to play one where │ starting from the first floor you are always either in extreme danger or │ in close proximity to it. │ └─■ 🕑 8.
