Hey there,

I enjoy Linux gaming via WINE/Proton, but I often wonder about Linux-native FOSS games. You often see brilliant titles like 0AD and Mindustry mentioned, but there are also some unspoken gems in the “genre” like Minetest and it makes me wonder what other FOSS games are out there, that people just don’t talk about much? I’m looking to discover and play more of these titles.

Games which I have played for more than 100 hours.

Shattered Pixel Dungeon: A traditional rougelike dungeon crawler.

Rhythia or Sound Space Plus: Rythm-based aim game.

Taisei: A Touhou FOSS Fangame.

Osu!: A rythm based game.

I can also recommend Rota, it’s a relatively new puzzle platformer. https://snapcraft.io/rota

Snap is closed-source backend and is hardcoded to use Canonical’s repo (therefore centralized). Kinda ironic I think. I can’t find it through flathub sadly.
