Ive been playing zero-k recently, and wondering what other great open source video games are out there?

    inability to freely save and load in a game

    Oof. That’s a really major downside. Bummer.

    Edit: just downloaded to see for myself. You seem to be able to save and load, at least in singleplayer on pc.

      I suspect I didn’t explain myself well.
      If I remember correctly, you can enter and exit the campaign, and doing so saves the game. There is also a single autosave, which you can’t manually select and is there for better or worse.

      So in practice, one mistake or ruthless surprise can turn into a lot of wasted time. For the sake of my alopecia, I used to make regular backups to the whole folder, convenient enough using btrfs.
