Open Source Game of the Year
 

What's your favorite Open Source Game?

--jeremy

None of the above, i like rigs of rods.

Well, out of the ones listed, I'd say UFO is the best one. I would also vote for nethack, but it gets enough votes anyway.

warsow? hedgewars?

if only urban terror was open source.

Well I like most of the games there but I still like SuperTux to play and relax myself.

Going to let the kids weigh in on this one... but I'm willing to bet it's going to be Wesnoth...:)

Still really like Openarena.
I guess once a Quake fan,always a Quake fan!!.

You guys really have to try Tremulous, it's so unlike anything else I played, and I also was a q3 junkie.

Super tux ...

If you include nethack you MUST include angband.

Angband has been added.

Both my kids and I like ufoai.
The big draw back is compiling the silly game can be a bit of a nightmare.
I did it on slack but debian is still out.

Urban Terror is the source of all joy!! Sadly I can't find it here.

What? No OpenTTD? They did recently release their first 1.x version (shameless plug alert) which relies on absolutly no non-free materials whatsoever.

Unless you want music, or want to use the orignal TTD graphics or sounds.

AssaultCube
 

Please add AssaultCube ...cant resist playing it every day...

OpenTTD has been added. AssaultCube does not meet the requirements of the poll.

You can't stop the Frozen Bubble! (and you can get it on the G1)
My wife won't stop playing K Mines

Randy SkaMan

Tux & Mario-like games.
 

I'm not familiar with most of these. I voted SuperTux, it's a cool little game.

I'm a HUGE Mario fan, but switching to Linux I've missed all those games. The only similar games I've found are Secret Maryo (SMC) and SuperTux. But I don't even know where the best place the find these kind of games is.
If you know of any games like Mario, SuperTux or SMA please let me know.

Could you add Aislerot Solitaire? Not a very high tech game, but it's what I always find myself playing while waiting for some job to finish. :rolleyes:

An actually playable chessgame like PyChess would be nice to have on the list. And Gnuchess hasn't changed that much for many years.

Hedge Wars. It's a way better remake of worms armaggedon than wormux. Add it to the list please! While using hedgehogs, it still feels much more like worms, even using the same menu and control feel! Plus the physics are much better than wormux's bouncy characters.

My vote would have been for spring...

I voted for Armagetron since Hedge Wars wasn't present...

X-Moto is my all time favorite

No vote, not enough time to test.
 

It used to be NetHack, but recent versions of it seem less user friendly than the one I had on my Ubuntu 6.06. I've been playing Flash based games lately, and have not looked at the other games available. Sorry if I'm not being fair, but I didn't feel I should bias this category without using all the options. I don't want to discourage any of these good people.

Guess I'd better get around to voting. The kids are unanimous:

Battle for Wesnoth!

Battle of wesnoth ..?? I don't even heard this game. Now I'll try it. Because many LQ people likes this game.

I should be ashamed of myself, for not voting here, and the moderators should be ashamed for not putting Sauerbraten in the list.

1) FWIW, don't blame the LQ mods for any missing nominees, it's me who decides what gets added and what doesn't.

2) Sauerbraten (the game) is not Open Source. No Open Source engines are included in this poll.

Yuppee.....I think my SuperTux made it to top 5.

Hmm, because the engine is open source(ZLIB licence), I thought th egame is too. Sorry, my bad.
