Post freeware games being distributed on the internet.

If you like grand scale stradegy games, you'll love this - fully customizable (graphics, rules, sounds, etc).

That's Free Software, NOT freeware.

In that case,

http://freedoom.sourceforge.net
http://www.nexuiz.com
http://tremulous.net
http://www.bzflag.org
http://cheapy.deathmask.net

are highly recommended.

I've never played a stradegy game before.

Heh, Freeciv. I've known about that game for years now, but I never bothered downloading it. Never had much of a reason to (I own a ton of Civ games). But that screenshot shows it's coming along pretty well now, so...what the Hell?

Kingdom of Loathing
That game is horribly fun. I stopped playing it when World of Warcraft jaded me though. It plays a lot like Legend of the Red Dragon (if anyone ever played that), so much that I think it was mainly inspired by it. It has a lot of subtle MMORPG elements too. HTML based, and not horribly graphically arousing, but it's a hoot to play sometimes.

Heh, officially, no. But you can find some Flash or Java version on the net.

Can't believe someone pulled that off with Line Rider...

[Snarboo]

Yeah I know, it's pretty wild. :) The comments in the news post say that a new version of Line Rider was used for the film that has a few new line types, such as scenary, and a line eraser.

There is a windows version of it, but the developer spreads anti-windows propaganda all over it.

PinguPop is tons better anyway.

Little Fighter 2. I've had tons of fun playing it, and it's especially enjoyable if you can gather enough players for running tournaments (I'd say four or more is good enough).

it's still in beta stages, but it's still a good game. It's a real time strategy game.

Debian users should type aptitude install tremulous.
