fgamelaunch is an open source SSH-based terminal game launcher with built-in replay and live-watching. It is meant for use with games such as nethack, crawl, angband, and tome.
WTF Game is a cross-platform game with a massive randomly generated world with base building and more, ASCII-style display as well as graphical tiles. Its goal is to be a cross between Nethack, Dwarf Fortress, and Dungeon Keeper… while of course having its own original aspects.
Using the Google V8 javascript engine, the majority of the game is done in javascript using PDCurses+SDL to display, allowing for many additions from a wide group of coders of many skill levels.
Anyone who is interested may contribute, just drop me an e-mail. The biggest immediate need is some good AI routines. Expect the first code commit to occur by Christmas.

This is an alpha of a 2d tactical shooter I’ve been working on. Its extremely easy to create maps, and the only thing needed to do so is MS Paint or another paint program. Enemy placement and collision areas, patrol paths etc, are all created by changing a couple images. Give it a try. If you make a level please e-mail it to me!
Multiplayer will be included in the next version.
Based roughly in a fictional rundown 1920-1950s, Decayed of Zombies -or DoZ for short- takes place on a large island with British-American style cities. The world is steadily falling apart, and is in a state of semi-chaos. The undead walk the world and many other creatures and things as well, some which are better off left unmentioned. The two main factions of the game, however, are the humans and the zombies. The humans and zombies are at war, with the zombies currently coming out on top, but in place has been set a mutual cease-fire that is shaky at best, and non-existent in most cases anyhow, with each side killing any member of the other on site.
Taking control of a zombie, the player has the starting option of what general ‘type’ of zombie to be. This choice reflects the starting stats of the player in minor ways, but the actual path the player chooses is forged as he or she plays. There is no ‘leveling’ in the traditional sense of the word, but rather, the player’s stats increase depending on what he or she kills most. The player never actually increases in level, so power is gained through what weapons one acquires and how one trains.Decayed of Zombies strives to break out of the typical sword wielding fantasy games and tries to offer a more unique experience. Swords a few and guns even fewer, but rather, players must fight for the better equipment and the common weapons are but makeshift ones. Chains and broken bottles are the norm in DoZ weaponry, and if you someone carrying a weapon you like, take it from them. Decayed of Zombies is PvP in most areas, although in some places one can find refuge from the wholesale slaughter of the world around them. Life for the undead and living is alike in one sense only: You must fight to survive. You will perish quickly if you don’t find a balance in the game, whether it be as a loner ambushing people on highways, or part of a clan. Clans are usually the best bet, so try to find others in-game who you can relate to, and ally (I use that word lightly) yourself with them.
Clans or gangs can, for a sum, purchase a place of their own which is usually a place where one may rest from the constant struggles of life and chat with other members or even store items. It takes a certain amount of upkeep a day to keep a guild hall, and you can buy halls of varying sizes, from small dumpy backrooms to extravagant hideouts but the bigger it is, the more you must pay.
You can store items you don’t need (Always keep your best on you) in the hall, and they will stay there unless another player picks them up. You basically share a storeroom with your guild, and can keep items there that you think another member may want. Be warned, though: other guilds can get together and raid your halls and you, their’s. If you fall in battle, your equipped items are up for grabs, whether it is he who killed you, a passerby, or a friend you saves them for you. Thus, it is always good to keep a second set of equipment in your inventory, as only your equipped items are lost.
Skills are another attribute of DoZ, although this is of course, not an uncommon feature in MMOs. You can use any of an array of skills if you have learned them, but they cost Blood to use. Your Blood is essentially the equivalent of MP or SP in other games, and you can drink bottles of blood to recharge your overall Blood points, as well as through selective killing you can raise the amount of Blood you can hold in you at a given time. As you might have guessed, we offer a decent sized world with multiple terrains, such as forests, desserts, mountains, snowfields, barren terrain, beaches, devastated cities, and more. This is along with the obligatory caves and crypts a well experienced looter seeks after, and of course, quests for those who wish to lend a hand… as long as they’re well rewarded in return.

DracIRC is a simple console-based IRC program I wrote.
Version: 1.2.2
Start as follows:
DracIRCTester.exe [server] [port] [nickname] [channel-list] [console_buffer_width]
Or you can put the above parameters into a file called DracIRC.ini like so:
[server]
[port]
[nickname]
[channel-list]
[console_buffer_width]
Instructions:
After you’ve connected, you can use the following controls:
Spacebar – Start input for raw irc commands
“#” key – Change currently viewed channel
Tab – Autoswitch to a channel with new messages
Any other key – Start typing a privmsg to the default channel
console_buffer_width: If you set this to -1 it disables the graphical console.
New in 1.5: Web browsers can be embedded into the desktop via the desktoprightmenu_web.csv file. See below for details.
New in 1.4: Folder items in the menu now have a ‘(Browse Folder)’ entry automatically
New in 1.3: Bugfixes, Separator Bars can now be added to the menu.
This program allows you to replace the desktop right-click menu with a custom one of your own making. It could contain shortcuts to all your programs or just certain programs you use all the time!
Many more features coming soon! Some are already here: Custom SubMenus, Items, Individual Items.
My personal setup: I create folders with shortcuts called Games, Apps, and Control Panel. I put all my games and applications shortcuts into the appropriate folders (even some subfolders). I also create a menu entry for the desktop itself.
This creates a quick and easy menu structure. And best of all you won’t have tons of programs installing shortcuts into this menu like they do to your start menu!
Now in 1.5+ you can embed websites right into your desktop while still keeping your custom right-click menu!
‘desktoprightmenu_web.csv’ example:

Stay tuned, the next version will have an editor built-in for the new desktoprightmenu_web.csv file!
This game requires a pretty heavy duty graphics card with pixel shaders to run fully. It’ll still probably run if you don’t but might have some strange graphics.
This game is open source (GPL license) and can be found here.
Pretty amusing for a bit, but unfinished. The level is a randomly generated city. It was an experimental game designed to see how much the Irrlicht engine could take. Thanks to some customizations I managed to get it to run pretty smooth with 200 zombies. Read the readme.txt for instructions.
Draconis is an arcade-style 2D/3D shoot-em-up for the PC and iPhone. Its very fast and challenging, but there is a “Simple” difficulty included for those who aren’t used to the intense action of arcade SHMUPs.
This game uses almost all aspects of the iPhone to offer good graphics, control, and gameplay.
* Tilt your phone to move your ship up/down/left/right.
* Hold one finger on the phone to fire standard shots.
* Tap two fingers to fire your special attack.
* Tap the top and bottom of the screen at the same time to pause for a breather!
* When you die, tap the screen where you wish to respawn.
And on the PC:
* Arrow keys move left/right/up/down
* Spacebar fires
* Enter uses the special attack
Also, your ship has a special ability you’re not used to in shoot-em-up games: It has an energy shield that protects you from straight-on hits, and not only that but it deflects the enemies’ shots right back at them! Use it to your advantage!
This game has many unique enemies, 5 unique levels with their own bosses, and literally unlimited gameplay if you’re really good! Once you beat the 5th unique boss, the game wraps back around for an even more challenging trek through the levels!
Unfortunately the iPhone version of this game is no longer available due to the flooded App market.

A very fun one or two player open source Win32 game. Distributed under the GPL.
This program patches display.dsp in /config/ and launches Falcon/AF/FF5.
Copyright 2009 DracSoft.com
Usage: falcon4patcher.exe
Example: falcon4patcher.exe 1280 768 “-window”
Run this program from the Falcon/AF/FF5 executable folder.
It comes with a small executable which will auto-download the MisSync.mis file from a web server to the mod folder if it has changed. The purpose of this mod is to allow the leaders of ghost recon clans to create custom missions for their teams, but only have them available immediately prior to the mission start.
This allows missions which are not known beforehand, and special scenarios not easily creatable because of team members practicing the mission, etc. The alternative is typically to have each team member go to a correct download page on the web at mission time, and ensure they save it in the correct place in Ghost Recon, etc.
Update 1.2 – Command-line Quick Menu added. Program exits on-launch.
Update 1.1 – Now supports use of beta exe’s
