Blood Frontier: The Latest Open-Source FPS
Cube was early on one of the first open-source first-person shooter games designed around its own engine. The 3D graphics for Cube were not the best, but development of this game had been going on since 2001. Based upon the Cube engine was then the Sauerbraten game that was also referred to as “Cube 2″ with its engine being redesigned. Now though another game is emerging and its engine is derived from Sauerbraten. This game is called Blood Frontier and in this article we have a few screenshots of this game, which is working its way towards a stable release for the open-source community.
Blood Frontier is based upon the Sauerbraten engine and takes advantage
of the features like a 6-direction height field world model, real-time map editing,
light-maps, shader-based lighting effects, integrated physics support, and a particle
engine. Like Cube and Cube 2, Blood Frontier uses OpenGL and SDL, which makes
it multi-platform friendly with binaries for Windows, Linux, and Mac OS X.
