Just out of curiosity to see what did the open source community produced lately, I ran some google search, and surfings, and guess what -> found bunch of stuff again.

Plus – I got surprised quite a bit. You know, in old days, there was no AJAX and JS libraries and stuff, so, basically, all games were pretty much text-based. But, nowdays, you can find all kind of cute things out there. Well, read and see yourself. I’ll stop babbling and get down to business:
Here it is:

Open source Browser games list – part III

1. Devana

Authors say: “MMO browser strategy game in which users can handle economical, diplomatic and military tasks to further increase their empire. Create alliances, battle other players with huge armies led by generals, trade resources, and more.”
So, I didn’t install this one, but jumped over to www.devana.eu and looked at GUI and checked out some screenshots. From my point of view, pretty impressive graphics for an opensource game. Plus, economical games never grow old, so, it seems you can play it on official page, and create own installation.
For project files go to sourceforge below:

2. Feudal times

Feudal Times is a world where you become a king, where you rule a small town and where you will make a great empire. Diplomacy, economy, town and army management, are the bases of every empire, how you mix them all is up to you. That’s what authors say. Also;
Feudal Times is a Persistent Browser Based Multiplayer Game (PBBMG). Persistent because the game continues even if you aren’t online. The buildings are being built, resources are being collected. You don’t have to sit hours in front of your PC to achieve good level in FT, it’s enough to visit it 2 or 3 times a day for about 15 minutes.
Sounds good, huh?

I haven’t seen any screenshots. Plus, I don’t use SVN (you should easily find SVN path on link above), so good luck in obtaining the code, but by description – it’s worth a shot. I’d give it 4 stars just for being worked via SVN, since it’s multi developer enviroment server and that would mean, many people can work on code. Which is always good (not entirely always, but, you know what I mean)

3. GloryLands Web Based MMORPG
Or so does title say. I’ve found it on SourceForge, having nice screenshots. I’m almost challenged to install it and try it, since it seems nice, actually.

Screenshots do look promising for a 0.5b release, but demo is currently inaccessible, so I’d recommend you download and try out yourself.
Currently I do not have any other info, but I can say – it’s worth of installation.

************************

Also, I’m affraid there aren’t many open source engines these days that are well known. Maybe there are some that are known to somebody else, but for me, plain googleing didn’t return much more than 3 new.

Still, being new ones, all three might be good choices to try out. Graphics and AJAX based GUIs these days are superb to older games.
Enjoy.
