Free shooter games software for linux

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.

Transcend Game project is a retro-style, abstract, collage-building, musical, shooter game.
The graphics are geometrical, and the pace is sometimes frenzied. Two features set Transcend apart from other games.
First, its dynamic graphical engine, which can smoothly morph from one complex shape to another in realtime, produces striking displays.
Combining these dynamic shapes with subtle randomizations ensures that each new play through a level is visually different from the last.
The second novel feature is the musical power-up system.
As you play through a level, you are simultaneously assembling an abstract visual collage and arranging a unique piece of music.
Enhancements:
- Fixed bugs that caused post-explosion fade factors to become negative, which in turn caused boss explosions to linger on some platforms.
- Fixed zoom behavior when strafing.
- Added fade-in when enemies are created to avoid a visual pop-in.
- Added smooth turning when enemies switch targets.
- Changed so that pieces can be picked up while they are moving as a result of enemy fire. This makes pick up less confusing and frustrating.
- Made bullet fade-out smoothly at end of range to avoid visual pop.
- Doubled piece pick-up radius to make picking up pieces easier.
- Fixed jerky piece pick-up and drop.
- Added mini-explosion graphics to indicate when damage is being done to boss. These graphics also change color to indicate the boss health.

Open Space Shooter is a simple 2D space shooter like asteorids.

Just a small spaceship, some Asteorids and some enemies. You got lasers and rockets and try to fight the enemy ships, not more.

It is simple but funny.

All is just a prototyp of a game I want to write later. But I have no time at the moment...

comisat Games Collection is an all-in-one free collection of games written in gambas for unix-like system. They are available in italian and (not completely) in english.

You can help the development of comisat Games Collection testing the software, mailing bugs, translating the project in different languages, correcting and improving the code.

Games::Score is a Perl module to keep track of score in games .

SYNOPSIS

use Games::Score;

# these three values are the default ones, by the way
Games::Score->default_score(0);
Games::Score->default_step(1);
Games::Score->step_method(inc);

# start two players
my $player1 = Games::Score->new();
my $player2 = Games::Score->new();

# set a winning condition
Games::Score->victory_is( sub { $_[0] >= 20 } );

# and something to do if it is achieved
Games::Score->on_victory_do( sub { print "Won!" } );

# give points to the players
$player1->add(2);
$player2->step();

# look at section FUNCTIONS for more functionalities, such as
Games::Score->invalidate_if( sub { $_[0] > 20 } );

Games::Score can be use to keep track of several players points in a game, regardless of the starting amount of points, winning and/or losing conditions, etc.
It provides several useful methods so that the user doesnt have to keep testing values to see if theyre valid or if the player condition has changed.

Games::Goban is a board for playing go, renju, othello, etc.

SYNOPSIS

use Games::Goban;
my $board = new Games::Goban (
size => 19,
game => "go",
white => "Seigen, Go",
black => "Minoru, Kitani",
referee => &Games::Goban::Rules::Go,
);

$board->move("pd"); $board->move("dd");
print $board->as_sgf;

This is a generic module for handling goban-based board games. Theoretically, it can be used to handle many of the other games which can use Smart Game Format (SGF) but I want to keep it reasonably restricted in order to keep it simple.

Games::Othello is a Perl extension for modelling a game of Othello.

SYNOPSIS

use Games::Othello;

my $game = Games::Othello->new();

while( !game->over ) {
printf "It is presently %ss move",
($game->whos_move eq b) ? black, white;
my @possible_moves = values $game->possible_moves();

if ( ! @possible_moves ) {
print "You have no moves available, you must pass.
$game->pass_to_opponent;
} else {
foreach ( my $move ) @possible_moves ) {
printf
"You will take %d of your opponents chips if you place your chip on %d,%d",
scalar @{ $move->{chips} }, $move->{x}, $move->{y};
}
my ($locx, $locy) = get_move();
my $flipped = $game->place_chip( $locx, $locy );
}

my $layout = $game->chip_layout();
foreach my $row ( @$layout ) {
foreach my $pos ( @$row ) {
printf %3s,
($pos eq b) ? B # Black occupied square.
: ($pos eq w) ? W # White occupied square.
: # Un-occupied square.
}
print "nn";
}
}
my ($black_score, $white_score) = $game->score;
