Alpha Shooter is a 3D OpenGL first-person shooter game with a sci-fi setting.
Alpha Shooter was born as a project for the Computer Graphics course at the University of Bologna.
The main objective was to develop a very simple 3D game using the OpenGL, GLU and GLUT libraries only (and some creativity). Emphasis was not placed on the game itself, rather on learning how to use the libraries to produce a 3D environment and interact with it; it was thus required to build a suitable scenery using polygonal meshes and quadric surfaces, appropriate textures and materials, lights, and effects.
According to my personal taste I chose a sci-fi setting, trying to reproduce an environment that could remind players of a warehouse or loading area located inside a space ship or space station, like those often seen in movies or commercial videogames (of course I was aware of the limits of my implementation). I focused development on a single room, with an outside view, for ease of development (it was my very first attempt at graphics programming) and because it was enough to make use of a wide set of elements of OpenGL, consistently with the project requirements.
The game I wrote was inspired to the First Person Shooter genre, in which the player can move around in a 3D environment, looking around freely through the eyes of the played character, interacting (in very limited ways) with some of the objects present, shooting crates and barrels and some holographic targets.
I had a lot of fun creating that simple game, so after I got my Masters Degree I decided it would be a waste to just leave it hidden in some obscure directory at home; it is now here, released as Free Software, so that I can keep working on it and improving it, with help from whoever will be interested, in the hope that it will be useful as an example on how to get started in computer graphics and games development.
Enhancements:
- Binary packages were created for all supported operating systems, including a Windows installer, an i386 Debian Linux package, and a PowerPC Mac OS X DMG disk image.
- Additionally, the improved persistent mouse movement mode uses a dynamic mouse cursor that shows direction and speed of rotation, making that movement mode more intuitive and useful.
- Several minor bugs have also been fixed.

Save The Penguins is a crazy space shooter with penguins and flying saucers.
This is inspired by "Save The Gweeks" for the Archimedes, in which you saved the gweeks from the snerds. I havent had access to the original, so how close it is I couldnt say.
You control this sphere/circle/whatever with the mouse. Left click to acellerate towards the cursor. Right click to fire lasers. Middle click to pause. Esc to Quit.
The idea is to kill the space ships before they either kill you or all the penguins.
The art for the penguins came from Pingus, the tileset was ripped from supertux.
If anyone would like to contribute levels/art/sound that would be cool.
Main features:
- Scrolling, moving and shooting.
- Tileset defined in simple configuration file
- Loading/Saving level to file with in-game level editor (press E).
- Objects (that is, non-static ones) get damaged when you hit them. The penguins explode in a pile of blood.
- Reasonable collision detection - you have to at least try to get it stuck.
- NEW!! Nice particle-based explosions. Saves me both needing a graphic for it, and it looks pretty cool
- NEW!! Powerups. Dont do much atm. One heals you, the other two hurt you by different amounts. Theres a hook to attach a sound to powerup/powerdown for when I get round to it.

The Castle is a first-person shooter (FPS) style game in a dark fantasy setting. Your main weapon is a sword, so the fight is mostly short-range. 3 main levels included, packed with creatures, items and sounds.

Also a bonus level, from a well-known 3D game, will be available to you from "New Game" menu once you finish the main game (you can also switch to this level from the debug menu, if youre impatient).

Blob Wars : Blob and Conquer is a 3rd person action shooter. With the apparent defeat of Galdov and the reclaiming of the Fire, Space, Time and Reality Crystals, the Blobs battle was only just beginning.
Bob had rescued many Blobs and fought many battles, but now he had an ever bigger task ahead of him. The Blobs homeworld is still littered with the alien forces and Bob once again makes it his task to lead the counter attack.
But even without Galdov the aliens are still extremely well organised.
Main features:
- Explore and battle in full 3D environments
- Use and aquire mutliple weapons (uzis, shotguns, grenades)
- Fight familiar enemies - Assimilated Blobs, Eye Droids.
- Auto targetting enables you to maintain a lock on enemies whilst dodging around
- Blob allies - Fight alongside buddies such as Teeka the Scout

Gammarace project is a vector graphics shooter.

An ode to oldie but goodie. It is a simple game that you can jump into and out of with no instructions. Just attempt to achieve the highest level possible (20 is about the highest unless you are some android from the future bent on killing us.

It was programmed in "D", digitalmars.com. What I consider the replacement for C/C++ and Java.

Anyway, just have fun.

Crystal Core is the main Crystal Space demo game. The project makes heavy use of CEL and CELstart. It is going to be a first person shooter with many quests and puzzle elements. The three main purposes of Crystal Core are:
- Be a good and playable game.
- Be a good tutorial on how to make games using Crystal Space, CEL, and CELstart.
- Spawn a modding community. Crystal Core is heavily modular and extensible.
Main features:
- A game menu where you can start the game and change a few options.
- Two levels out of the game.
- Two creatures that will try to follow and attack you.
- A small quest that you have to solve in order to get access to some part of the level.
