2 months agoAltitude would be fun to see reborn. Hit 4-5k players at its peak on Steam. Now pretty much dead apart from dedicated league play.
It’s a 2D flight/arena game with a variety of game modes, aircraft to fly, weapons, perks, powerups etc. Very arcade.
- ✅ Fun
- ✅ Accessible (Win/Mac/Linux/Steam)
- ✅ All ages
- ✅ Casual (games last minutes, not hours)
- ✅ Not AAA
- ✅ Free
- ✅ Runs on potato
Only drawback according to the assignment:
- ❌ Not FOSS

I think back then I was using wicd as well.
It’s come a long way.
