GPL First Person Shooter Released

Posted by Zonk on from the tux-with-a-gun dept.

Lisandro writes "Nexuiz v1.0, an fast paced deathmatch FPS, has been released under the GPL. It uses a heavily modified version of the Quake 1 engine, with real time lighting/shadowing, improved particle effects and more. It looks really good and it's available for Windows and Linux, with a Mac version said to be coming soon."

  1. Mac version by daeley · · Score: 3, Interesting

    According to a post on their forum, there is a Mac app in the download, but it is non-functional out of the box -- they are working on including some libraries with the download that will alleviate the need to compile anything. They "expect the patch to be out within a week", so that's cool.
