So many people think open source games are a no-go. But there are many good FOSS games. Luanti CTF is one of those games I really enjoy. It is based on the open source voxel game engine Luanti which has similarities with the closed source Minecraft game.

Showing server list in Luanti

I have been playing this game since youth years. And now I also develop the game :)

Server address: jmaminetest.mooo.com:30001

Some YT channels posting CTF vids:

Edit: See this post from rubenwardy on history of CTF. He started the game. And as he lost interest, he did a wise choice to hand it over to someone else.

Edit2: This server, and also other servers in the JMA network is strictly family friendly. Bear this in mind when playing on the server. This also means it could be a good playground for your kids, if you’ve got any :)

    Don’t judge me, but I setup a minetest server and let my children use luanti and told them this is Minecraft.

      Me little cousins call all these games “Minecrafts” and then call Luanti “A minecraft”. Like “I have installed a good minecraft” xD

      And BTW, I edited the post. JMA servers are strictly family friendly. So you can join with your kids. Actually, there are few father-daugher or father-son who play together. I think there were also husband-wife couples but dunno if they still are around.

      I agree Luanti isn’t the best choice for that rename, but at least they switched away from minetest. IMO the original name didn’t help it sound as a mature and active developed project.
