DarkWorld is a space-based massively multiplayer real-time strategy game. Each player starts off with their own home planet. From there they can build ships, start exploring the universe, colonize other planets, and attack other players. What makes this game unique is that the game is always running at a very slow speed even when you are not connected. When you send a ship to another planet, it may not arrive for hours or days, and likewise the message it sends back may not arrive for hours or days. This allows many players to engage in a real-time strategy game that could last for months. New players can join the game at any time.

From the site: "Nearly three years after taking the underground gaming scene by storm with Uplink, Introversion Software is poised to release its follow-up title, Darwinia. Combining fast paced action with strategic battle planning, the game features a novel and intuitive control mechanism, a graphical style ripped from 80's retro classics, and a story concerning a tribe of video game sprites trapped in a modern 3d game world."

Dave 3D is a Free media data-only project for the Duke Nukem 3D source code.

It aims to be compatible with all ports of the game and maps as well as striving for a 1995 retro game atmospheric flair.

Unfortunately due to the BUILD engine license clashing with the GPL (which is used for the game's source code), no engine will be bundled with the game data. If you strongly see this as an issue, then please help free BUILD! :)

This game is similar to Duke Nukem.

Most the basic functionality is in now; you can walk, jump around, collect stuff, open doors with keys, shoot monsters etc. You can download it, try run it, have a look at the source etc, but don't expect to play a proper game or anything. There is also a level editor.
