Open-Source Games

Open source has been producing games for decades that owe nothing to anyone: turn-based strategy, flight simulators, shooters, and free-licensing remakes of classic titles. Behind each game are communities contributing purely out of passion, without studio budgets or imposed release dates. The code is public; anyone can improve it, and that shows in the longevity of projects that have stayed active for years without being abandoned.
