Want to play a game about the tumultuous life of a street shop vendor? Well, you can't right now, as the website hosting it is currently drowning under heavy bandwidth load. But when it returns, you'll find Cart Life, the indie small business simulation from Richard Hofmeier, available free of charge and completely open source for tinkerers to slot in custom characters and stall types.
You all love free games right? Good news as it is free games Thursday here at GOL and we bring you news that H-Craft Championship has been unshackled from its price-tag and is FREE.
Planetary Annihilation has some more spit and polish now as they work through their Gamma phase of development, they have recently improved art, the lobby, the AI and more!
CRYENGINE one of the most advanced game engines around powering a ton of games has finally announced official Linux support, so Crytek how about some Crysis on Linux?
AlienVault has emerged to be a leader in the security information and event management (SIEM) space in recent years, thanks to its open-source and commercial offerings.
Linux gaming is getting better, slowly but surely, and it looks like The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings might be the next shot in the arm for the open source operating system.

Before Valve began greenlighting games by the bucketload, busting onto Steam was seen as a massive accomplishment for an indie developer. So it always raises one’s curiosity when a game’s creator decides to leave the berth of the all-mighty digital distributor for the lands of open source. In this case, it’s Richard Hofmeier and his IGF prize-winning title Cart Life.
