Gradient Bang
Gradient Bang is an online multiplayer universe
Gradient Bang is an experimental open-source project developed within the Pipecat ecosystem that reimagines AI interaction as a persistent, multiplayer simulation where users and large language models coexist inside a shared virtual environment. Rather than functioning as a traditional application or API, it is conceptualized as an “online multiplayer universe” in which participants can explore, trade, battle, and collaborate while interacting with AI agents as active entities within the system. The project serves both as a prototype and a conceptual playground for testing how conversational AI systems behave when embedded into dynamic, game-like environments rather than static chat interfaces. It leverages the broader Pipecat architecture for multimodal and conversational AI orchestration, meaning that interactions can potentially extend beyond text into voice, events, and real-time systems. -

OpenDiablo2
An open source re-implementation of Diablo 2
This is an open-source re-implementation of the classic action-RPG Diablo II (including its expansion) — or rather, a game engine that can run it. The engine is written in Go and cross-platform, aiming to bring the feel of the original 2000s-era ARPG to modern systems. Because the project does not include the original game assets, users must supply their legally purchased copy of Diablo II / Lord of Destruction; the engine then loads the MPQ archives and runs the game. The project is organized into a core engine (now evolving into a more generic 2D ARPG engine under Abyss Engine) plus toolset and support libraries. While still a work-in-progress, OpenDiablo2 has made strides: the main menu works, character selection and basic UI panels load, and movement in the first act is possible. The goal is eventually to support full gameplay — potentially allowing modders or developers to extend or make new games atop the engine. -

OpenRW
Recreation of the classic Grand Theft Auto III game executable
OpenRW is a cross-platform, open-source re-implementation of the game engine behind Grand Theft Auto III (GTA III). Its goal is to recreate the original gameplay engine in a modern, maintainable codebase so that GTA III can run natively on modern Windows, Linux, macOS, and BSD systems — long after the original executable becomes unworkable. The project does not ship with game content: users still need a legitimate copy of GTA III (with its original assets) to play, making OpenRW strictly an engine reimplementation, not a re-distribution. By re-writing the engine from scratch under a permissive, community-friendly license (GPLv3), OpenRW ensures long-term preservation, mod-friendliness, and better hardware compatibility (modern GPUs, controllers, cross-platform input, etc.). For developers, it also offers tools such as a “script tracer” to inspect in-game scripts opcode by opcode, a data-file viewer (RWViewer) for studying object data, models, and map files. -

Starlight Fabric
Rewrites the light engine to fix lighting performance
Starlight is a performance optimization project for Minecraft that completely rewrites the game’s internal lighting engine to improve efficiency and reduce lighting-related lag. The original Minecraft lighting system can be computationally expensive when generating terrain or updating large structures, which can cause performance problems on servers and heavily modded environments. Starlight replaces this system with a redesigned algorithm that processes lighting calculations more efficiently and reduces the number of updates required for each chunk. The project aims to improve chunk generation performance, reduce lag spikes, and eliminate certain lighting bugs that occur in the vanilla engine. Because it fundamentally replaces the default lighting system, Starlight can significantly improve performance on servers handling large numbers of block updates or terrain generation tasks. -

Stride
Stride (formerly Xenko), a free and open-source cross-platform C# game
Stride (formerly known as Xenko) is a full-featured, open-source game engine written in C# and targeting the .NET ecosystem, designed for both 2D and 3D games — and even VR experiences. Stride offers a comprehensive toolchain: an editor for scene building, asset management, a rendering pipeline with physically-based rendering (PBR), and support for advanced graphics features such as real-time reflections, post-processing effects, and complex materials (skin, hair, cloth, etc.). Because it’s built on modern C# and .NET, developers can take advantage of modern language features (C# 14, .NET 10), tooling (Visual Studio, VS Code, Rider), and long-term maintainability. The engine supports cross-platform development: you can build for desktop, mobile, or VR, and target multiple operating systems. Stride is modular and customizable: you can tailor rendering, physics, scripting, and other subsystems to suit your game’s needs. -

Tower Building Game
HTML5 Canvas Tower Building Game
Tower Building Game is a small game project — likely implementing a classic “tower defense” or “tower-based” game — designed to showcase game-development fundamentals such as rendering, game logic, user interaction, and possibly simple physics or animations. As an open-source repository, tower_game aims not only to deliver a playable game, but also to serve as a learning resource or template: developers can inspect its code, understand how game loops, input handling, asset management, and state updates are organized. This makes it useful for programmers who are curious about games but don’t want to start from scratch. Because simple games often involve fewer dependencies and easier build processes than full-scale games, tower_game can be a good starting point for hobbyist developers, students learning programming or graphics, or for integration as a mini-game inside larger projects. Additionally, its open-source nature lets contributors fork and improve it. -

Turbulenz Engine
Turbulenz is a modular 3D and 2D game framework
Turbulenz Engine is a powerful, modular open-source game framework built in JavaScript and TypeScript that enables developers to create both 2D and 3D games that run directly in HTML5-compatible browsers as well as on desktops and mobile devices. The engine is designed to support rich multimedia applications without the need for plugins, using modern web technologies for graphics, physics, input, sound, networking, and asset management. It includes not only the low-level APIs for rendering and resource control but also high-level systems like scene graphs, animation, physics modules, and service APIs that handle game-specific features like leaderboards and multiplayer. Because it’s modular, developers can pick and choose the systems they need or build on top of the framework to create custom tooling and workflows tailored to their projects. Turbulenz also comes with extensive samples and example applications that demonstrate best practices in rendering, physics, user interaction, etc. -
