Overte - VRChat-alike, but open source! (overte.org)
submitted 2 days ago by ElectroVagrant@lemmy.world to c/open_source_gaming@lemm.ee

From their main page:

Overte is an open source virtual worlds and social VR software which enables you to create and share virtual worlds as virtual reality (VR) and desktop experiences. You can create and host your own virtual world, explore other worlds, meet and connect with other users, attend or host live VR events, and much more.

In other words, it's more or less an open source approach to VRChat.

Cataclysm DDA Release 0.H Herbert (cataclysmdda.org)

Yes, the text in the release says Hebert but some posts on Discord indicate that it was a typo and they meant Herbert.

Looks like around 21 months of development in this one. It looks pretty feature packed.

I enjoy playing Cataclysm DDA.

I don't know how I feel about the name, but I think it is good that they moved away from minetest.

It's been a while since I have played it, but when I did it was fun. It's hard to get a big enough group of friends to play.

Looks interesting. I haven't tried it. Looks like you need to own a copy of the original game. I am sure you could probably find it on GOG.

Looking at their GitHub, it appears to be open source, but I don't see it advertised anywhere. https://github.com/Inq8/CAmod

If you haven't played a space station game before, it's a fun time. Try one of the Wizard's Den servers if you are new.
