Blitz2nuts: Update personal site link, and this time get it RIGHT

Hello, I am blitzdoughnuts. I'm some dork on "Teh Internetz" that loves libre software and makes cool things for my or other's amusement.

I lost the password to [[User:Blitzdoughnuts|my account]] here and I can't seem to get it back, so this will have to be my new one until then.

I am the author of [[Wake to Hell]], [[Anarchic Brawl]], [[LibreIkemen]], Mr. Wendigo's Adventure, [https://git.coom.tech/blitzdoughnuts/Fazer2D Fazer 2D], and [https://git.coom.tech/blitzdoughnuts/LibreTower_SDL2 both] [https://github.com/Applemunch/LibreTower versions] of Libre Tower, and am a very irregular contributor to the wiki, and sometimes I dig through the games here to check for their freedom.

Blitz2nuts: Reply to thread/* Contains non-free assets */

== Contains non-free assets ==

According to the manual the game utilizes some CC BY-NC assets, e.g., https://github.com/Espyo/Pikifen/blob/1.0.0/manual/content/credits.html#L172 or https://github.com/Espyo/Pikifen/blob/1.0.0/manual/content/credits.html#L186.

: I would like to add that, even if the assets were freely licensed, they're all too similar to the proprietary Pikmin games to be actually libre. Same characters, same creatures, same fonts, basically a lot of the things seen are the same and it's a clear violation of copyright, trade dress, even trademarks.

'''''Pikifen''''' is a fan-made ''Pikmin''-based engine, built with flexibility in mind. It is a free and open-source engine/game, with gameplay very similar to the ''Pikmin'' games, in that leaders can whistle and throw Pikmin, Pikmin can carry objects, and so on. The idea is for fans to create their own content (enemies, areas, etc.), while the engine itself handles the game logic (like physics, scripting, and so on) as well as reading the game data to turn it all into something playable. That said, the project also comes with some base content, so players can experiment with its features right away.

'''Wake to Hell''' is an interactive story game, self-proclaimed walking simulator, about a former surgeon, Lukifer Dredd, coming back to the hospital, only to realize something dark had occurred, then attempting to piece together just what happened. Being based on a webcomic, it shares similar themes of mental distress and plot connections. It was also made as a way to practice programming philosophies inspired by [[Drummyfish]].<ref>https://ludicrital.neocities.org/waketohell</ref>

The game provides builds for Windows and GNU/Linux, utilizing mainly SDL2 for frontend code, but providing use of Raylib and SAF as well, although due to the game's in-development state, they have been left outdated.

== Gameplay ==
Wake to Hell is more about exploration and storybuilding than anything else. You walk around many locations in Limetown, emerging from your house, investigating oddities, anomalies, and generally interesting things around the area. Nearly all pleces you could be, there's something to look at or interact with. The main things to look for are "artifacts", key items that, strangely, affect certain things in the world. The absence or presence of them, as well as the order in which they're found, are also factors in what may happen. There are also other things around, like books or simple background objects you can Gesture with.

== Copyright Problem ==
Before Alpha Build 4's release, Wake to Hell came bundled with a file called "WTH.S3M", an edited version of Big Jim's Wake to Hell. As of Alpha Build 4, it is no longer bundled as a replacement MIDI was made. The January 10, 2024 "Copyright Exodus"<ref>https://git.coom.tech/blitzdoughnuts/WakeToHell/commit/eff0c53fcf971f6c387fc94fb6f36785d07542e4</ref> completely purged it and any other possible offending material from the source code and game.

'''Mr. Wendigo's Journey''' is a public domain, suckless 2D platformer game inspired by the likes of [[SuperTux]], [[Anarch]] and Super Mario Bros. Currently, the game is under development with only three levels and a basic moveset, alongside the aforementioned collectibles and enemies. There is also a level editor program, ''mwjedit'', written with ncurses made for the game.

==Gameplay==
Playing as the titular Mr. Wendigo who is embarking on a quest to reach some dunes with mysterious gemstones ‒ those he's not interested in ‒ out of sheer boredom, you run and jump through several levels, encountering collectibles and baddies. There are green gems, health pickups, as well as "runes" that grant Wendigo special abilities, although they are hard to come across.

'''Anarch''' is a completely public domain, free software, [https://www.suckless.org suckless] 90s-style anarcho-pacifist Doom-like libre FPS game. It was created by [[drummyfish]], completely from scratch. The game's aim is to experiment with a different game development philosophy.

==About==
Anarch is made for entertainment but also as a manifesto of certain philosophies and ideas, including suckless programming, extreme portability, anti-copyright, selflessness and anarcho-pacifism.

The game is a "pseudo 3D" first person shooter, like [[Doom]], and consists of 10 levels. The graphics uses a 256 color palette and is a little simpler than that of Doom, having e.g. no textures on floor and ceiling, no vertex maps and using just 32x32 pixel images. The engine uses software rendering and 2D raycasting for rendering. There are multiple enemy types, weapons and items to pick up. Music is 8-bit and procedurally generated, utilizing so called bytebeat.

==Features==
Some of the aspects of the game worth mentioning are:

* Extremely small size, being able to fit into 200 KB, including all assets.
* Very low hardware demands, being able to run on 40 MHz embedded CPUs.
* No library dependencies – The core of the game is written in pure C without any specified I/O, which is left for each platform's frontend to implement.
* Implementation simplicity – no build system is needed, only a single file needs to be compiled. The whole source code has ~12k lines of code.
* All assets are baked into the source code, so no filesystem is required for the game to run correctly.
* Extreme portability thanks to the above. Official ports exist for PC, terminal, web browser and embedded consoles like Pokitto and Gamebuino Meta.
* Made completely from scratch with only free software, including the engine, assets and media.
* Completely public domain status, made completely from scratch by a single developer and released under CC0 (with an additional waiver of patents and rights).
* A number of official mods already exist such as an HD mod, demo support (recording gameplay), a CRT screen simulation, a [[Freedoom]] asset swap, and an online cooperative mod.

'''LibreMage''' is a completely public domain puzzle game in which three mages have to collaborate in getting through levels. It is a rerelease of an older game (originally released in 2013, back then called Mage Rage) that has all assets liberated and a bit polished code, although the code comes from the author's younger years and is in needs of improvement (for example by rewriting it into C).

== Can't edit without proprietary tools ==

I realized that Ikemen GO requires the use of MUGEN's proprietary sprite and sound formats, which cannot be modified without proprietary tools. This also includes LibreIkemen, which means neither are really libre, as this means the freedom to modify is restricted to the use of proprietary, abusive tools. I marked the page for deletion because of this. -[[User:Blitzdoughnuts|Blitzdoughnuts]] ([[User talk:Blitzdoughnuts|talk]]) 01:04, 26 September 2024 (CEST)
:So the assets themselves (images, sound) are libre, but the format they use are proprietary? Interesting. I don't, however, see the license of proprietary tools to create said assets as a showstopper as long as the tools are not directly required to use the final product (play the game). I bet a lot of proprietary tools have been used to create lots of libre assets through the years. --[[User:Fiver|Fiver]] ([[User talk:Fiver|talk]]) 21:50, 26 September 2024 (CEST)
::Strictly speaking it is an issue because free software (and by extension any free work) must allow not only use but also modification, studying and redistribution, AKA the four basic freedoms. That is what distinguishes it from mere freeware. It's fine if the work was created with proprietary software but it must further on be modifiable with free software only. I think many free software repositories have this as a rule (don't quote me on it but I think you will find something along these lines in GNU, Debian and so on). --[[User:Drummyfish|Drummyfish]] ([[User talk:Drummyfish|talk]]) 01:49, 29 September 2024 (CEST)
:::I want to highlight the difference between permission to modify and facilitation to modify. Permission is determined by the license, and facilitation is determined by the availability of tools. To make an informed decision I would need to see sources both for the claim that assets must be modified using only libre software for the game to be considered libre, and for the claim that many software repositories have this as a rule. I'm not saying you're wrong, and I'll gladly read relevant links you can provide on this matter, I just don't recognize that the availability or license of the tools would be a factor when determining if the final products are considered libre or not. Besides, any libre text editor or libre hex editor can be used to modify any file (like assets or software). The precision may not be very good, but I can't imagine any requirement regarding such precision or even usability. --[[User:Fiver|Fiver]] ([[User talk:Fiver|talk]]) 19:05, 30 September 2024 (CEST)
::::I'm kinda tired so you win I guess.--[[User:Drummyfish|Drummyfish]] ([[User talk:Drummyfish|talk]]) 17:49, 1 October 2024 (CEST)

:::::Freedom isn't just about licenses; we also require that games publish source code, right? [[Libregamewiki:Article policy]] isn't crystal clear on this but it seems implied. I don't know how difficult editing the discussed format is, but if it's impractical with free tools, specifically because people usually use proprietary tools, then I don't think it's unreasonable to consider the game nonfree and delete the page for now. If it's merely slower or less convenient with free tools, then I think the page should stay. If something is naturally impractical to edit, and not because of any missing information or source code, then I think that's fine. Even if the game isn't acceptable now, the information needed to read a data format is probably a good step towards the information needed to modify that data format, so the game could be acceptable once free tools can modify the data. --[[User:Jacob K|Jacob K]] ([[User talk:Jacob K|talk]]) 11:15, 29 January 2025 (CEST)

Blitz2nuts: Add my name, I forgot

== Use of recognizably copyrighted assets? ==

This is something that's bugged me with this game, it uses assets strikingly similar to, if not exactly, the ones from the original Pacman in arcades. I believe these are copyrighted by Namco, or at least restricted of use in some way. The level grid even looks identical to something you would see in the original, and these assets are included in not just the package, but the source code as well. -[[User:Blitzdoughnuts|Blitzdoughnuts]] ([[User talk:Blitzdoughnuts|talk]]) 10:14, 9 August 2024 (CEST)
: Yes, also pac-man is a trademark, not mentioning that naming the game exactly the same as the original is also pretty weird, plus it would likely violate trade dress etc. Could be a deletion candidate. --[[User:Drummyfish|Drummyfish]] ([[User talk:Drummyfish|talk]]) 13:01, 9 August 2024 (CEST)

: I agree the name is trademark-infringing, but I think it's plausible that there's not a copyright problem here. The designs of the sprites are very simple, and the design of the maze itself is functional. I don't know if trademark infringement is enough to warrant deleting a game. Compare to [[Secret Maryo Chronicles]] (slightly less clear case of trademark infringement). It would be good if [[Libregamewiki:Article policy]] addressed trademarks specifically. --[[User:Jacob K|Jacob K]] ([[User talk:Jacob K|talk]]) 07:32, 29 January 2025 (CET)

== Blatant use of non-free assets ==
I'm stating this again, this time with a bit more clarity, that this game clearly is not just riffing on Namco's Pacman, but might as well be copying straight from it. I've taken a deeper look into the game and compiled a list of what exactly is being infringed:

* The level grid's rendering and layout, the design of Pacman, the ghosts, some of the fruits, and every sound is copying the original game to a T. This all is likely copyrighted or violating trade dress, naking these non-free.

* The "Cheapmot.TTF" font, named Cheap Motel, is listed as Shareware at [https://www.dafont.com/cheap-motel.font DaFont] and [https://www.fonts4free.net/cheap-motel-font.html Fonts4Free], and "Free for Personal Use" at [https://www.1001freefonts.com/cheap-motel.font 1001FreeFonts] and [https://www.dafontfree.net/cheap-motel-font/f3288.htm DaFontFree]. [https://fontmeme.com/fonts/cheap-motel-font/ FontMeme] says it's free for commercial use, but says shareware right underneath the font preview. The font is likely shareware, and is not libre.

* The game uses the exact names of the 4 ghosts (Blinky, Inky, Pinky, and Clyde) and the titular Pacman in-game. These are likely subject to trademark or copyright violations. These names in particular are also used inside the source code (see src/constants.h), but those may or may not be liable.

Unless the game, considering at least its source code is libre, can be liberated with unique assets and possibly a redesign of the maze, or the "labyrinth", I don't think this game is libre. -[[User:Blitz2nuts|Blitz2nuts]] ([[User talk:Blitz2nuts|talk]]) 02:33, 29 January 2025 (CEST)
: Excellent summary of many things that could be a problem. I don't agree that all of them are actually a problem, but I agree on the sounds and the font, so I'm in agreement with a deletion. --[[User:Jacob K|Jacob K]] ([[User talk:Jacob K|talk]]) 17:16, 29 January 2025‎ (CET)

'''''Freedoom''''' is a project aimed to create [[Free software|free]] data replacements for the [[Doom]] and Doom II IWAD files, as Phase 1 and Phase 2, as well as a deathmatch map pack IWAD named ''FreeDM''. Combined with the [[GNU General Public License|GPL]]ed Doom Source (such as [[PrBoom]] or [[GZDoom]]), this makes a completely free (as in speech) game. The data is licensed under the [[Modified BSD License]].<ref>[https://freedoom.github.io/about.html ''Freedoom'' about page]</ref> Episode 4 of Phase 1 is the [https://doomwiki.org/wiki/Cacowards Cacoward] [https://doomwiki.org/wiki/Cacowards_2011 winning] ''[https://doomwiki.org/wiki/Double_Impact Double Impact]'' which was [https://www.doomworld.com/forum/topic/63195-episode-4/ donated] by its creators. The project is aiming for a more direct science fiction setting to differentiate it from Doom.

A few forks exists, namely ''Satanic Infestation'', which strives to maintain a hellish theme, ''GZFreePunk'', which utilizes [[GZDoom]] specific features, and the custom ''Lotan's Tomb''. The game previously required a Boom-compatible source port, but has subsequently been made compatible with vanilla Doom.

'''LibreQuake''' is a free software data replacement for [[:wikipedia:Quake (video game)|Quake 1]] in the spirit of ''[[Freedoom]]'' and ''[[Blasphemer]]'', after the previous ''[[Open Quartz]]'' got stuck in early development. Unlike Freedoom it does not aim for full vanilla compatibility except for Episode 0. To play the other episodes a limit-removing source port like [https://sourceforge.net/projects/quakespasm/ Quakespasm], [https://github.com/andrei-drexler/ironwail Ironwail] or [https://github.com/Novum/vkQuake vkQuake] is therefore required. It was founded 2019, using the permissive [[Modified BSD License]] and aims to expand on the [[:wikipedia:Lovecraftian horror|Lovecraftian]] theme of the original ''Quake''. It is currently missing many levels in some episodes as well as some sounds, and is working on finishing its models.

'''Wake to Hell''' is an interactive story game, self-proclaimed walking simulator, about a former surgeon, Lukifer Dredd, coming back to the hospital, only to realize something dark had occurred, then attempting to piece together just what happened. Being based on a webcomic, it shares similar themes of mental distress and plot connections. It was also made as a way to practice programming philosophies inspired by [[Drummyfish]].<ref>https://ludicrital.neocities.org/waketohell</ref>

The game provides builds for Windows and GNU/Linux, utilizing mainly SDL2 for frontend code, but providing use of Raylib and SAF as well, although due to the game's in-development state, they have been left outdated.

== Gameplay ==
Wake to Hell is more about exploration and storybuilding than anything else. You walk around many locations in Limetown, emerging from your house, investigating oddities, anomalies, and generally interesting things around the area. Nearly all pleces you could be, there's something to look at or interact with. The main things to look for are "artifacts", key items that, strangely, affect certain things in the world. The absence or presence of them, as well as the order in which they're found, are also factors in what may happen. There are also other things around, like books or simple background objects you can Gesture with.

== Copyright Problem ==
Before Alpha Build 4's release, Wake to Hell came bundled with a file called "WTH.S3M", an edited version of Big Jim's Wake to Hell. As of Alpha Build 4, it is no longer bundled as a replacement MIDI was made. The January 10, 2024 "Copyright Exodus"<ref>https://git.coom.tech/blitzdoughnuts/WakeToHell/commit/eff0c53fcf971f6c387fc94fb6f36785d07542e4</ref> completely purged it and any other possible offending material from the source code and game.

Libregamewiki:Rejected games list

2025-01-18T18:15:23Z

Blitz2nuts: Add Libre Tower (the GMS2 version) to the rejected games list

'''Rejected games list''' is a list of games which were rejected to have articles in the [[Libregamewiki]] for not complying with the [[Libregamewiki:Article policy|article policy]], but for which it is likely that somebody will try to add them or do time-consuming research about their freeness (or there is a significant hope of liberation, e.g. it is apparently non-free only because it has been derived from a then-non-free work).

Note that the licenses of a game can change, and that a game may be put here erroneously, so being on this list does not mean the game is rejected forever: if you think a listed game actually is free, you can start a discussion on [[Libregamewiki_talk:Rejected games list|the talk page]].

In the meantime if you do find a game to be non-free in your research, be sure also to remove it from [[Libregamewiki:Suggested games]] when you add it here. Just in case.

:That does not make the game non-free. [[User:GNUbie|GNUbie]] ([[User talk:GNUbie|talk]]) 17:36, 18 August 2013 (CEST)
:: Section 1 of the Open Source definition says: "The license shall not restrict any party from selling or giving away the software as a component of an aggregate software distribution containing programs from several different sources. The license shall not require a royalty or other fee for such sale." So, assume I bought a copy of the game with the source code. Since I am not allowed to give it to my neighbor, this is not free software.
:::If you're not allowed to give it to your neighbor, it's not free software, sure. But if they only give the source code to paying customers, that's ok. (The customer must be allowed to pass it along.) [[User:GNUbie|GNUbie]] ([[User talk:GNUbie|talk]]) 19:05, 18 August 2013 (CEST)
::::Selling code is okay with free SW, it doesn't violate anything, however '''at the same time the source code has to be available to anyone''' for free in order to respect freedom to study and modify. So the question here is whether the source code is available somewhere else for anyone. If the source is really freely licensed, anyone would be able to legally host (redistribute) it somewhere for free. If this is not allowed, the license is not free. --[[User:Drummyfish|Drummyfish]] ([[User talk:Drummyfish|talk]]) 08:34, 22 January 2019 (CET)

'''''[[:wikipedia:OpenArena|OpenArena]]''''' is a [[First-person shooter game|FPS]] game intended to be a free replacement for the proprietary ''[[:wikipedia:Quake III Arena|Quake III Arena]]''. Both the media and the game are licensed under the [[GNU General Public License|GPLv2]].<ref>[https://metadata.ftp-master.debian.org/changelogs/main/o/openarena/stable_copyright Openarea's copyright file] at [http://debian.org/distrib/packages Debian packages]</ref><ref>[https://metadata.ftp-master.debian.org/changelogs/main/o/openarena-data/stable_copyright Openarena-data's copyright file] at [http://debian.org/distrib/packages Debian packages]</ref>. The OpenArena project was established on August 19, 2005, the day after the id Tech 3 GPL source code release. A "mission pack" add-on is also planned, to take advantage of the GPL released ''Quake III: Team Arena'' source code.

==Gameplay==
Due to the game's heritage, the gameplay of OpenArena plays almost identically to that of Quake III Arena. The player scores frags to win the game, to score a frag the player has to slay an opponent, either a computer controlled "bot" or a human player. There are a variety of different weapons designed for different situations, such as a rocket launcher, shotgun, railgun, gauntlet, chaingun, and [[:wikipedia:BFG 9000|BFG]]. There are also a variety of collectibles available on the maps such as health and armour upgrades and objects that gives the player special abilities such as the notorious Quad Damage which increases the effectiveness of the player's weapon.

The maps are very varied, some of them set in a [[:wikipedia:Science fiction|science fictional]] environment, some in [[:wikipedia:Gothic fiction|gothic]] temples, some in massive fortresses, and some in lava landscapes. These maps can also have different interactive objects such as lifts and jump-pads. The gameplay is very fast and requires skill to be successfully played against other players on the Internet.

The game has multiple playing modes such as [[:wikipedia:Deathmatch|Deathmatch]], Team Deathmatch, Tournament, and Capture The Flag (all of these modes are from Quake III), Version 0.76 ported modes and weapons from Quake III's Team Arena that also ran under the same libre engine, such as Elimination, CTF Elimination, Double Domination, and Last Man Standing.<ref>[http://www.headshotgamer.com/review.aspx?id=59 HeadShotGamer.com - OpenArena Review]</ref>

OpenArena has undergone testing to make sure that it is compatible with Quake III modifications and maps - to allow them to be run on a free game as well. Since OpenArena is still incomplete, many maps and mods are not yet compatible. A list of mods verified to work in OpenArena can be found here: [http://openarena.wikia.com/wiki/ModCompat http://openarena.wikia.com/wiki/ModCompat].

OpenArena has been advertised as a "[[:wikipedia:Erotica|sexy]]" first person shooter and warns that some models are near nude (only covered with tight clothing or hair), in addition to the game's [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Video_game_violence violent theme], it is "not appropriate for children."<ref>http://openarena.ws/</ref><ref>http://openarena.ws/about.html</ref> The various bots and player skins are just as varied as the map design, some being science fictional, gothic, [[:wikipedia:Anime|anime]], military, and [[:wikipedia:Fantasy|fantasy]] based.<ref>[http://www.raiden.net/articles/open_source_game_review_open_arena/ Raiden's Realm - OpenArena Review]</ref> Unlike the original Quake III or Unreal Tournament there is no back story explanation of why the combatants are in the arena and why they are fighting.

== Reception ==
The game is one of the most popular [[free software]] [[:category:First-person shooter games|first person shooters]], particularly among fans of the original Quake III. It has also been praised for its portability and ability to run on older hardware.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20080906115311/http://www.headshotgamer.com/review.aspx?id=59 HeadShotGamer.com - OpenArena Review (archived)]</ref> Internet play has also been praised, as well as the amount of players found on the average OpenArena server.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20081206150834/http://www.snappygamer.com/2008/11/02/openarena-open-source-quake-iii-fun/ Snappy Gamer - OpenArena: Open Source Quake III Fun (archived)]</ref> The game has also been credited for its creativity in bot design, rather than sticking to more traditional tropes.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20100612094127/http://raiden.net/articles/open_source_game_review_open_arena/ Raiden's Realm - OpenArena Review (archived)]</ref> OpenArena is also popular on the Apple Macintosh, with one reviewer praising it as one of the best free games for the Mac, noting that it is only a little bit behind contemporary commercially funded games for the PC and consoles in terms of graphics and artificial intellgence.<ref>[http://macapper.com/2007/11/05/openarena-pure-fragilicious-fun-for-mac/ MacApper - OpenArena: Pure Fragiliciouss Fun For Mac]</ref> OpenArena has been used as a platform for computer science scholarly work. A few examples include streaming graphics from a central server,<ref>Peter Eisesrt and Philipp Fechteler - "Remote rendering of computer games. Proceedings of the International Conference on Signal Processing and Multimedia Applications (SIGMAP)", Barcelona, Spain, July 2007.</ref> and visualizing large amounts of network data.<ref>Lucas Parry - "L3DGEWorld 2.1 Input & Output Specifications. CAIA Technical Report 070808A", August 2007</ref>

==Development==
They have a roadmap, which details their plan for future version of the game.<ref>[http://openarena.wikia.com/wiki/Roadmap OpenArena roadmap] accessed on October 27th, 2008.</ref> They also have a development blog for the project.<ref>[http://community.livejournal.com/openarena/ OpenArena development blog] accessed on October 28th, 2008.</ref>

A "reboot" codenamed "[https://openarena.wikia.com/wiki/OA3 OA3]" has been mooted, with the aim to replace the current mishmash of art styles with a unified theme, "something more manga inspired", while also hoping to raise graphics and performance standards.

==Version history==
*Version 0.8.0 released on September 19th, 2008. However, it was pulled because of licensing issue.
