This means that the source code is available to be studied, modified, and distributed. Most projects look for help with testing, documentation, graphics, etc., as well. Homepage Limbs Off is the flagship in plaimi's phun-fysics genre, in which they strive to reproduce complex real life physics, but take certain liberties whenever they feel it will add to the entertainment of the games. Limbs Off specifically is a fighting game that takes place in space. Right now there is only one planet and three characters, but plaimi want to implement several planets as well as inter-planetary travel via cannons, amongst other features. The characters are "limbless", and consist of a head, body, two feets and hands. As of yet, the only way of "fighting" is running into each other. When the characters hit each other, their mass is decreased up to a point where their body parts are unlinked and the characters effectively become space junk. The source code is licensed under the GNU GPL, and plaimi encourage people to contribute with code, make their own art, and make packages for UNIX package managers. Limbs Off does not come with sprites or sounds. Instead, plaimi want to hack the game to load art from a data directory, so that users can install their own art. As of yet it only supports this with character sprites, as the game is at a very early alpha stage. It "went public" on the 24th of September in 2011, on github. The game runs on relatively modest hardware, and has been compiled and run successfully on most modern UNIX-based operating systems.

Note: This project is open to adding any map format that can be programmed (without using additional external libaries) in C. It has already implemented Wolfenstine:EnemyTerritory map loading, as well as support for use of .obj files as maps themselves (extension: .obj_from_mc , added to maps directory) Note: .unr (unreal97) map format is desired, please see: https://sourceforge.net/p/chaosesqueanthology/tickets/2/ C++ code has been found that displays the .unr map format (linked above). This engine is in C. Please if you are reading this, consider assisting this project. The engine source code is here: https://sourceforge.net/p/chaosesqueanthology/code-t3d_attempt_engine/ci/master/tree/ The relevant files are: model_brush.c (.h) and model_shared.c (.h). A useful subroutine to look at is in model_brush.c : Mod_OBJ_Load on line 7562 , which loads triangle data and face data from the .obj format. The .unr format has all the triangle and face data baked into the format; no interpolation is needed (unlike .t3d). (The .unr C++ source code is here: https://sourceforge.net/p/chaosesqueanthology/tickets/2/attachment/UShock_source.tar.bz2 . It needs to be studied and translated to a C subroutine for this game's engine) Note2: VBSP (halflife2) map loading is also desired: as a developer by the name of CloudWalk attempted it; but did not complete it. His code is included here: https://sourceforge.net/p/chaosesqueanthology/code-vbsp_attempt_engine/ci/master/tree/ in the file model_brush.c in the function Mod_VBSP_Load() (and similar functions). He attempted this code 4 years ago; and we have ported it over to this version of the engine now. The commit says it crashes: we believe it. He got up to the loadfaces stage of interpreting these files. If someone could complete the work... if someone could complete the work....

The player takes the role of an astronaut with the mission to find a habitable planet, after humankind plunged the Earth into an ecological catastrophe. The player is not on their own, but accompanied by programmable robots that can help in building and defending structures. Through a satellite link with 'Houston' she/he is directed to complete a number of missions on different planets. The game also involves a rather aggressive though evolving relationship with native alien lifeforms. Apart from the missions, there are also two game modes that instruct the player in the use of CBOT, the language used to program the bots. This language is rather similar to C++ and Java. During the missions, it's not really necessary to write code for the bots, but it is convenient to be able to adapt the programs Houston offers to the player. Version 0.1.6 introduced the Code Battle game mode, where players first provide all programs needed to operate a base and/or kill all enemies, and then let the programmed bots do their job without the possibility to interfere. The game provides three types of enemies: passive targets, pre-programmed bots and hot-seat play against a fellow human.
