@[email protected]@[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
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.
Agreed 👍 . And most of the games you can play on Steam are also not open source, but read the question again: KDE is asking in this concrete case for more FLOSS software that you think deserves being boosted.
My apologies. In no way was I trying to undermine your answer. I was trying to point out (maybe clumsily and untactfully) that Minecraft was not open source, so it did not fit the question. That is all.
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)
@[email protected]@[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@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.

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

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

@mitsunee @[email protected] @[email protected] yeah, i also downloaded gnome game package…
@mitsunee @kde @kde
@[email protected] @[email protected] Mangohud is really good. And for me the top video is a bit laggy on Firefox.
@kde @kde Zero-K, greatest RTS of all time
@kde @kde Maybe recommend @PrismLauncher ? Its using Qt and Minecraft is very popular.

It’s a treasure.

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

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
