Help us improve our guide! What free and open source #games or utilities do you recommend?

@kde @[email protected] Pretty sure KPatience is the game I play most of the time because I struggle to start new games a lot lately... oh and sometimes gnome 2048 I guess, hope that doesn't revoke my KDE Shill License :3
@mitsunee @kde @[email protected] yeah, i also downloaded gnome game package…

@mitsunee

> hope that doesn't revoke my KDE Shill License

Haha that's fine :)

@kde @[email protected] games? 0a.d. or minetest, sometimes playing other things but in browser. Idk

@kde @[email protected]

My vote goes to @Minetest (https://www.minetest.net/) and 0 A.D. (https://play0ad.com/) two criminally underrated games that deserve much more exposure.

#minetest #0AD #linuxgaming

Luanti | Open source voxel game engine

An open source voxel game engine. Play one of our many games, mod a game to your liking, make your own game, or play on a multiplayer server.

@Bro666
I'm unfamiliar with 0 A.D., though as an on again off again Minecraft player for over a decade now I 110% agree minetest needs more exposure
@kde @[email protected] @Minetest

@kde @[email protected] SuperTuxKart! Also I think you could also highlight emulators.

Not free and open source games but I think the guide should focus more on Steam Play (maybe even show a video of how just clicking play works on a AAA game) and Heroic for Epic Games (Many people may have free games they acquired from Epic Games)

@kde @kde Maybe recommend @PrismLauncher ? Its using Qt and Minecraft is very popular.

@tibequadorian @kde @PrismLauncher @[email protected]

Minecraft is not free and open source software though.

Check out @Minetest. Apart from FLOSS, it is much more extensible, making it not only great for creating a wide variety of derivative games, but also a better educational and collaborative tool than Minecraft.

It's a treasure.

@Bro666 @tibequadorian Yes but PrismLauncher is open source.
@kde @[email protected] Heroic Launcher (an open source client for epic, Amazon games and gog)
BAR - Beyond all Reason (sci-fi RTS built on the open source spring engine)
Ultrastar Deluxe (Karaoke-Partygame, similar to SingStar, but extensible with new songs through simple text files)
@kde Xonotic is great foss fps! Then for utilities, ProtonUp-Qt is nice. Its used for updating custom proton versions.

Heroic launcher could use a mention too, i use it for all my non-steam games (GOG, Epic games)
@kde @[email protected] Mangohud is really good. And for me the top video is a bit laggy on Firefox.
@kde @[email protected]
https://www.beyondallreason.info/ is a really really good floss rts game and i would mention lutris at same time as bottles as they both do pretty much the same thing and lurtris can even handle emulation, which i think bottles cant
Beyond All Reason ★ RTS

@kde @kde Do you have something for android games emulation?
On windows, LDPlayer works pretty well, but I couldn’t get it to work through Bottles on linux.
