I decided to write down a list of complete (no alpha/beta), playable (no proprietary dependencies), FOSS videogames.

I added all the games I could find online + all of the games that came to my memory.

Feel free to have a look to see if there's something you didn't know. And please suggest anything I missed, but please do not suggest pre-release or unfinished games.

Thank you!

EDIT: thank you very much everyone for the comments and for sharing additional awesome lists of FOSS material. Hopefully one day I will have the time to sift through all these games and pick all the non-pre-release ones which don't have any proprietary dependencies.

In the meantime, here's a copy of the links:

  • LibreGameWiki - A wiki of free games and related topics started by Han Dao.
  • Open Source Game Clones - Open-source or source-available remakes of great old games in one place.
  • Open source games - A list of different open-source video games and commercial video games open-source remakes.

I'm so glad to hear someone liked Strife enough to do a port of it. I did not do well trying to play that thing as a dumb kid, but I was entranced by the tone and scope of it. Probably had something to do with my ttrpg writing habits.

Strife was great. Soft locking your game because you made the wrong choice or attacked the wrong guy was really special to me. Good memories.

It's such a great lesson to teach a kid, that you can irrevocably ruin your own life. It's always an option!

I see kids these days and I feel like some of them don't know, they've got quicksave eyes sometimes.
