Commodore OS 3.0/Linux Games (Proposed)

Post by LeoNigro »

Commodore OS is the official base install for the Commodore 64x. One of its goals is to provide countless hours of entertainment out of the box.

The following is a provisional list of games that are likely to come pre-installed in Commodore OS 3.0 (PC) as standard.
Testing will be required to see if they are compatible or if they require registration (likely through Steam).
The Steam game service, which is available from the menu (Applications --> Game Services and Tools), has a multitude of free linux based games you should try if you're interested, but as they require registration, they won't be included in Commodore OS.

Commodore OS 3 will also come pre-installed with the games in this list: viewtopic.php?t=762.
All games will come pre-configured to full screen (at reasonable resolutions where required) and categorised by genre in the menu system.

If you have a suggestion for a game that could be included (i.e. it's free, Linux compatible and fairly decent) please post below.
Free Windows games that run well through WINE are also welcome as suggestions.

Please note, if you are lamenting the download size, I am considering selling USBs, which may just happen to have Commodore OS 3.0 on them. :lol:
Maybe, some day, I'll get around to writing a manual(in the style of the VIC-20/C64 ring bound one) you can buy also, that will come with new C64Xs.

There are so many cool games I hope Commodore OS can introduce to you.
