| arkhart | 0.1.3 | GPL | A roleplaying game in an original world called Arkhart | After a never-ending war which had begun because of the arrival of the daphyrings (insect-like creatures) which some humans feared, the planet sank bit by bit into a Middle-Age-like ignorance. From the bits of a rich and united nation were born numerous empires ever waging war between themselves. Humans having forgotten all their knowledge use the seldom-found devices of the ancient civilization such as magical artifacts, for they now know only how to forge old-fashioned weapons such as swords, axes, bows... |

| egoboo | 2.22 | GPL | Egoboo is a 3D dungeon crawling adventure in the spirit of NetHack. | Egoboo ( Ee-go-boo ) is a 3D game, and requires a 3D graphics card to play. You can try it in software mode, but that's yucky. If you have problems, change the SETUP.TXT file. Egoboo is freeware, open source, but it ain't finished and I'm done working on it. Do with it as you will ( think NetHack ). |
| freedroidrpg | 0.9.10 | GPL | A Diablo clone with the Tux as hero and the MS as evil power | The Freedroid RPG is an extension/modification of the classical freedroid engine into an RPG. The main differences to the classical version are as follows: * The Tux is the main character of the rpg. He is not displayed as a ball like in Freedroid but rather as an animated character, while other droids and humans in the game are still represented as the balls with some number or code in them. * Dialogs and chatting with friendly droids and humans: Multiple-choice menus and voice samples (with subtitles for those without sound). * Melee weapons, armour and other items to be equipped have been added. * An automap feature was added. * Saving and loading of games. * A shop to trade things. * Controls are different: Mouse can be used to do everything. Joystick is not supported for moving around any more. * The archive size (including sound samples) is about 10 times as big as for the classical version. I'd like to appologize to all 56K modem owners at this point. |

| nethack_falconseye | 3.3.1_jtp_1.9 | GPL-like | Graphical role-playing game based on nethack | NetHack is one of the oldest computer role-playing games still played and developed. The latest version of the game, NetHack 3.3.1, was released in August 2000. Some players may dislike the game's character-based graphics. Newer versions of NetHack feature tile-based, somewhat prettier graphics, but I decided to go even further. Thus, I decided to create a new, graphics-intensive look for NetHack. Falcon's Eye is a mouse-driven interface for NetHack that enhances the visuals, audio and accessibility of the game, yet retains all the original gameplay and game features. |

| xu4 | 0.8 | GPL | Ultima IV Recreated | XU4 is a recreation of the classic computer game Ultima IV. The purpose of the project is to make it easy and convenient to play on modern operating systems. xu4 is primarily inspired by the much more ambitious project Exult. Linux is the primary development platform, but it should be trivial to port to any system with SDL support. XU4 isn't a new game based on the Ultima IV story -- it is a faithful recreation of the old game, right up to the crappy graphics. If you are looking for a game with modern gameplay and graphics, this is not it -- yet. New features that improve the gameplay and keep with the spirit of the original game will be added. The actual data files from Ultima 4 are loaded at runtime, which means that a copy of Ultima 4 for DOS must be present at runtime. Fortunately, Ultima IV is available as closed-source freeware on the internet (legally). A copy is mirrored at xu4.sourceforge.net. It is also available from http://plf.zarb.org, http://www.zip.com.au/~mfleming/ultima/u4download.html, http://members.tripod.com/~hardwire1/ultima4.zip, http://www.members.aol.com/tommage/UltimaPage/ultima4.zip, or http://www.nightfall.org/~deep/ultima/main.html among many other sites. Once downloaded, it must be unzipped in /usr/share/games/u4/ultima4 |
“A disgruntled ex-employee who was in charge of making sure we were
Microsoft compliant turned us in to the Business Software Alliance,”
[Ernie] Ball says. [...] “We were raided by armed Federal Marshals
and completely shut down for a day. Then you have to swear you won't
touch any data other than what is minimally necessary to run your
business,” he says. “I don’t believe you should treat a customer
that way.” [...] The company ended up paying a [USD]$90,000
settlement.
Ball [...] decided at that moment his company would become
“Microsoft free.” According to Ball, “Everyone said we couldn’t do
it. It took us about one year” [to convert to] a Linux-based network
and UNIX mainframe.
“I haven’t had to buy XP, and I haven’t had to buy new computers.”
