@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@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social @Minetest

[โ€“] hacknorris@mstdn.social 3 points 1 year ago

@kde@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social games? 0a.d. or minetest, sometimes playing other things but in browser. Idk

@kde@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social 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

@kde@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social Mangohud is really good. And for me the top video is a bit laggy on Firefox.

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

@tibequadorian @kde@floss.social @PrismLauncher @kde@lemmy.kde.social

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.

@kde@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social 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)

[โ€“] Vittelius@layer8.space 1 points 1 year ago

@kde@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social 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@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social
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
