I'm usually a fan of open source games but rarely do they manage to be actually great. People like giving recommendations like Super Tux Kart that haven't aged well and don't play well. What are some open source games that are legitimately good that I've missed?

My favorites are:

Mindustry
Sonic Robo Blast 2 Kart
Powder Toy
GZDoom (and all the amazing mods for it)
Veloren (even though it's still in alpha)

I really liked Speed Dreams when I played it years ago. Never heard anyone else talk about it. Warsow and Red Eclipse were also good.

Amagettron advanced en soldat are fun games (not sure if they're open source)

When I played open source games around 15 years ago, these were all the same games mentioned. There doesn't seem to be a lot of progress

Beyond All Reason is a RTS made with Spring Engine that's an open source implementation of Total Annhilation.
