🕶️ A view of its UI with Super Mario Bros. (me, it is obvious in the score ;) against Link (an AI), in a scenery mixing the usual environment of these 2 iconic characters.

📚️ Super Smash Bros. Melee (SSBM, Melee) is a 3D multiplayer fighting game released for GameCube in 2001, a sequel to Super Smash Bros. (for the Nintendo 64 in 1999), whose goal now is to do maximum damage to his opponents. Here, too, the player plays as characters from Nintendo video games. Slippi is an emulator derived from Dolphin, modernizing the game (unified interface, support for modern hardware, netplay, matchmaking, game statistics, etc.).

🕶️ A view of its user interface (on a clear theme) with, for a game (Rage Jump) developed with this engine, a dashboard page dedicated to links and analyses (“Analytics” curve and “feedbacks” table) and a “Player services” section.

📚️ GDevelop is a libre (with additional paid features), multi-platform, mature, game engine & IDE, dedicated to the creation of multi-platform and/or HTML5 2D (and even 3D) games without programming knowledge, via an intuitive and powerful event-based system. The games created are royalty-free and license-free. In addition to its event-based system, it implements the JavaScript language to allow advanced users to extend its possibilities. It offers a resource manager (images, sounds, fonts, and access to a resource pack store), a scene editor (to position objects), an object editor (object creation), a layer editor (display layers), and an event editor (conditions & actions).

🕶️ The game screen is very small (corresponding to the specifications of the NES, whose display is 256×240 pixels). A bird's-eye view of a Zelda-style game, where Link (the protagonist) is walking along a paved road, approaching a house in the middle of the woods. A mini-map at top left suggests a very large map.

📚️ ZQuest Classic is a libre, multi-platform, mature action-RPG engine, that comes with a clone of the NES version of The Legend of Zelda (1986, Nintendo). It lets you play numerous games (700 quests as of June 2023, mostly Zelda-like) designed by the community, and easily develop them thanks to its comprehensive, intuitive editor, which requires no programming (apart from the optional scripting language for extended functions), and also delivers data sets (traditional/improved). The project has brought together a community that has developed significant content, and its development is sustained.

🕶️ A side view of the demo delivered with the engine (called Adventure of Demo, X-Tech engine version 1.3.4, tested on my Linux PC). It's a Mario-like game, but with its own original content, and the whole thing is really neat. There are cakes to collect on and under the platform.

📚️ TheXTech is a libre and multi-platform engine (and game), allowing the creation of games similar to Super Mario Bros. It is a faithful rewriting (but in C++, and multi-platform) of the SMBX engine, a Super Mario Bros engine written by fans (in VB6, only for Windows). TheXTech will remain the "vanilla" version (the equivalent of Chocolate Doom for Doom), with gameplay faithful to SMBX, while the PGE engine (from the same authors) is an improved version (the equivalent of GZDoom for Doom). TheXTech comes with a very impressive demo, allowing you to play Super Mario Bros, in solo or multiplayer, with many levels, in windowed or full screen, with the keyboard or the gamepad. Excellent!

🕶️ A bird's-eye view of a multiplayer game, featuring 3 factions, the closest to the observer - a red faction, sheltered by a force field is firing and taking heavy cannon fire from the green faction, while in the distance a blue faction is approaching.

📚️ Beyond All Reason is a free, multi-platform, single-player / multi-player RTS with a sci-fi theme, simple metal and energy based economy, and classic gameplay (4X for supremacy on). The player starts with a mecha, draws resources, builds his army and faces adversity. A mature game designed by and for gamers, with scenarios, handpicked maps, over 400 different units designed with great care, a new multithreaded path system and OpenGL 4 support allowing the game to be played with over 10000 units at over 100 FPS in 4K, reworked lights, shadows and fog, a lobby client (also mature, for single-player / multi-player, co-op vs other players and/or AIs, scenarios, rating, content loading, ...).

The period is medieval, several Mongol units & a trebuchet surround a castle in the center. The units have an icon for easy understanding (mongol, sword, trebuchet, ..), slightly transparent when not selected. The Mongol on horseback on the right of the castle is selected.

On the left of the UI several command buttons (Sleep, Pillage Pasture, Explore, Wait, ..), below the characteristics of the selected unit (Keshik, 2 stars, XP 5/20, ..), in the lower middle a box with what seems to be a report on the selected unit (Keshik vs Elephantine).

📚️ UnCiv is a ~ libre (icons & sounds not all libre), multi-platform, single-player / multi-player (by exchange of "User ID"), turn-based strategy game (4X) & Empire building, inspired by Civilization V: the game starts in 4000 BC Christ, the player directs a nation or an ethnic group, with the aim of supremacy over the other protagonists, leading his group until 2050 AD. It's a neat game that offers in-game help to get started, solo/multiplayer, map editor and game save / load. Very good !

OpenLoco is a libre & multi-platform, single-player / multi-player, C++ re-implementation (the original mixed x86 assembly code with the RollerCoaster Tycoon 2 engine) of its engine, derived from that of OpenRCT2.

The game is packed with graphical effects (fog, dynamic lighting, light distortion and rain effects), Doppler sound effects, Ragdolls physics, dozens of high-quality maps with or without AIs, a host of weapons, a simple lobby client, the ability to host games and a fast-paced soundtrack.

🕶️ A view of his IU with on the main part, a top view where the protagonist - in the center, has just tested and abandoned on the ground many AK47 (he still holds one in each hand) in a futuristic room with other equipment laid on tables (first aid kits, weapons, gloves, bags, ....). At the bottom center a small interface shows the weapons carried and their loading status. At the top left, buttons to access the menus, at the top right a log window, and at the bottom right a small interface summarizing the equipment carried.

📚️ Space Station 14 is a libre, multi-platform online sandbox action RPG (derived from the game Space Station 13, which it improves and liberates) where players live aboard a space station, all with great freedom of action and scenarios (depending on the servers). Some players play as members of the space station, with different roles assigned, others are assigned antagonistic roles, with the objective of disrupting the station's mission. It can also be played as a simple shooter on the same station! Excellent!

🕶️ A view of its UI (v. 1.0.1, compiled with Godot from my Linux PC, in this case the title bar shows “Charge kid (DEBUG)”) with the Kid at the top of a platform shooting towards a wall (for the screenshot, I've done a bit of nonsense to show the shooting possibilities) in a dark blue environment reminiscent of an industrial complex.

📚️ Charge Kid is a libre (commercial binary), multi-platform puzzle platformer whose objective is to reach the next platform through a thoughtful combination of mechanics and physics. The player has limited resources to complete each jump. The difficulty lies not so much in the precision of the jump as in the use of the limited resources available. The game features precise controls, multiple solution puzzles, quality pixel-art graphics, soundtrack and sound effects.

🕶️ A view of its UI (on my Linux PC) with a nice scenery - platforms in the middle of the jungle. I'm Knuckles (in red, at the top of the screen) vs Super Mario Bros. (an AI, at the bottom of the screen).

📚️ Super Mario War is a libre (except for the graphics: fair use), multi-platform, single-player (AI) / multi (up to 4 in hotseat/LAN), Super Smash Bros. combat game featuring characters from Nintendo's Super Mario Bros. series. The goal is to crush your opponents by jumping on their heads or using powerups.
