Open Source FPS Game Alien Arena 2009 Released!

"The open sourced, freeware FPS game Alien Arena 2009 has been released (Windows and Linux). The improvements to the game engine are very significant, and have surely raised the bar for free games of this genre. All surfaces in the game are now rendered using GLSL, not only improving the visual quality, but the performance as well. Interesting new effects like post-process distortions using GLSL have been implemented, as well as light volumes, better per-pixel lighting (reminiscent of UT3), and shaded water. Equally notable is that the sound system has been completely rewritten using OpenAL, allowing for effects such as Doppler, and adding Ogg-Vorbis support. The game is free to play and available for download on its official website. It has a stats system and a built-in IRC client in its front-end game browser."

INCINERATE

"It is 2074.
Astronomers from around the world are watching an asteroid crash into the surface of Mars leaving a huge crater. Clouds of dust and vapor hide the surface of the planet for several long months. Communication with all Martian research stations is lost. When the clouds clear away, people send new spaceships to the Red planet.
The spaceships send back shocking news. Hundreds of plants producing arms have been set up on the maimed surface of Mars. Thousands of machines stock the mineral deposits that had been brought to the surface by the massive explosion.
A huge geothermal unit is running in the Center of the crater. Its energy creates a protection shield that extends beyond the planet’s atmosphere.
The objective of the unknown aliens is absolutely clear: they’re building an army to conquer the Earth! So people are sending a small spaceship to the Red planet with one mission: blow up the shield generator so they can launch missile attacks from the orbit.
The spaceship will have to land in an isolated area, and then try to infiltrate into the alien conspiracy.
You are the commander of the spaceship, and the fate of the Earth is in your hands!"

Tank At The Gates!

Tank At The Gates!

"Throngs of enemy armour are spreading in your sector while your single tank is everything that stands between the enemy armada and your HQ…

This game is a real gift for all the old-school fans of Battlecity and its clones, as it incorporates all the features of the the original title, adding some new and really good ones. First at all, the game is rendered in a full 3D with a possibility to tilt your camera to get a better viewpoint. Note that your tank turns smoothly, so the various ambush tactics can be implemented.

All the original levels of the Battlecity are present in the game, plus alot of new ones are added. The terrain itself is colored in several different landscapes and is visually variable. Moreover, the terrain type influence the game process: both your and enemy tanks move slower in the desert, and while on the snow you may experience difficulties controlling your tank.

But, despite the number of improvements, the essence of the game remained the same – be quick, sharp and decisive while destroying your enemies. Use the number of upgrades like additional armor and improved gun, or powerful battlefield features like freezing off your enemies or raising concrete wall around your HQ. Finally, if you feel the game is too hard for yourself, you may invite your friend and play the game together on the same screen.

Good luck! Enemy will be defeated, we will gain a Victory!"
