Looks like battleMETAL will fill some Mechwarrior 2 nostalgia

Just came across this cool video and project which aims to implement a Mecha game and SDK on the Quake1 engine ( Darkplaces specifically): You can find more details on their website and the Github repository .

Bos Wars and Egoboo

There's a new Bos Wars release - version 2.4 comes with a new resource system and a new tutorial (presumably to reflect the new resource system).

Don't miss Sealed Bite, the Game Off 2019 winner!

So make sure you don't miss Sealed Bite , a fun little/short jump and run: Obvious inspiration comes from the very popular Celeste game . You can find the source code here , and not all that surprising it utilizes everyone's favorite Godot Engine :) Sadly the graphic assets are quite a bit less free (CC-by-NC-ND). Let us know if you enjoyed this gem of a game on our forums!
