Slashdot links to a deathmatch first-person shooter called Nexuiz that has just been released under a GNU General Public License (GPL).
The game was developed on an advanced version of the Quake 1 gaming engine, and the screenshots look pretty good:
It is a 3d deathmatch game made entirely over the internet. The purpose of the game is to bring deathmatch back to the basics, with perfect weapon balancing and fast paced action, keeping itself away from the current trend of realistic shooters. It uses HFX textures by Evil Lair, and currently has 17 maps to frag in. With an advanced UI, the user can select between 15 different player models to use, with an average of two skins for each, and can connect to our master server to play people from all over the world.
The game's content and source are GPL. Meaning, it is entirely free and any of it can be used in other free projects, even if modified.
