Ive been playing zero-k recently, and wondering what other great open source video games are out there?
I love the game, but absolutely hate the inability to freely save and load in a game where maps can last for hours.
inability to freely save and load in a game
Oof. That’s a really major downside. Bummer.
Edit: just downloaded to see for myself. You seem to be able to save and load, at least in singleplayer on pc.
I suspect I didn’t explain myself well.
If I remember correctly, you can enter and exit the campaign, and doing so saves the game. There is also a single autosave, which you can’t manually select and is there for better or worse.
So in practice, one mistake or ruthless surprise can turn into a lot of wasted time. For the sake of my alopecia, I used to make regular backups to the whole folder, convenient enough using btrfs.
