Does anybody know a libre Linux game from a game jam that he/she can recommend? (Or Windows and I try it with Wine?)

Greetings
Peter

Is cool, but assets are non-libre.

I am rather happy of the game I made for LibreJam 202108:

Obviously the other games there are also libre and worth looking at. There was a mailing list change, so try asking for a tar of the games that are not listed.

I wanted to play that, but for some reason I get syntax errors when I load it via Godot.

My favourite LibreJam game (excluding mine) would probably be Gatemender.

The syntax for GDScript is going to change in Godot 4, my guess is that you tried to build from the main branch, which is used for testing. If you compile your own Godot executable, try compiling a 3.3.x version (you should be able to do `git checkout 8e68f2e5f48c66bfa80b9bb7746a488afb70086d` to get the 3.3.0). Alternatively, you can download a 3.3.3 build from the official site https://godotengine.org/download/linux. The version from Debian stable fails to read the project file, but any less stable distribution probably has a recent enough version (package godot3).

I will probably try again when I upgrade my system. I am out of date on my Fedora version but am waiting on getting new hardware.
