Descent 3 Open Source

[Zerofuchs]

So the Descent 3 source code has been uploaded to Git and left for the world to whatsit:
https://github.com/kevinbentley/Descent3

 

6DoF corridor shooters might be a little niche even within the retro FPS side of the video game world, considering Sublevel Zero and Overload both saw fairly limited success, but wonder what folk are going to do with it anyway. Maybe a few major mods get shifted to standalone games.

Edit: Doublepost, thread here

I haven't played much Descent (let alone Descent 3...) but this sounds really cool!

I searched Descent 3 before posting and now to doublecheck, andthe most relevant thread I saw was from September 2023 threads asking about what game people want Nightdived next. Can you provide a link or two to current threads and I'll update the OP?

Hm dunno how I missed that, guess I should've checked recent threads and not just searched. Chalk it up to eyeball failure and a thread not yet indexed. If you're reading this from the front page conversation is here:
