A growing collection of computer games that are freeware, open source or free to play.

Do you like fast paced deathmatch?  How about rich, colorful, arcadelike atmospheres?  How about...retro Sci Fi?  Then you’re going to love what Alien Arena 2007 has in store for you!  This game combines some of the very best aspects of such games as Quake III and Unreal Tournament and wraps them up with a retro alien theme, while adding tons of original ideas to make the game quite unique. 

With 35 levels, five modes of play, loads of mutators, built-in bots, 11 player characters, 8 weapons(with alt-fire modes), the game has an endless supply of replayability.

Using the CRX engine, which is based on the Id GPL source code, AA2K7 now includes modern effects such as real time vertex lighting and shadows, lensflares, light blooms, reflective water, textured particles, stainmaps, 32 bit color, shaders, fog, and much more.  Built into the game is a easy to use server browser which allows the user to query information about each server.  A Q3 style console has been added, as well as colored player names, winner podiums, and weapons stats.  The best thing about the CRX engine however, is it’s netcode and speed.  Even on a modest system, you will get excellent framerates, and movement is still extremely smooth and fast, even on high ping servers.

New for AA2K7 is Team Core Assualtl, a mode in which players must work together to disable their enemy team’s central metal spider.  Don’t forget about the Team Deathmatch, Capture the Flag, Deathball, and All Out Assault mode (in which players can enter vehicles) either. 

For those who like the single player experience, COR offers two single player games, CodeRED: Battle For Earth and CodeRED: The Martian Chronicles.
