This is the first release of the community port of Descent 3, released as open source software under the GPLv3 license on April 16th 2024.
While other source ports are pretty popular like GZDoom, Chocolate Doom continues getting better to retain the best compatibility with the original DOS versions of Doom, Doom II, Heretic, Hexen and Strife.

Oh MMy — a new ScummVM release!
Please welcome the first ScummVM release of the year: ScummVM 2.8.1.
ScummVM 2.8.1 is a maintenance release mainly focused on fixing bugs that were uncovered since our last stable release.
This update includes upgrades for the following engines: AGI, AGS, GRIM, SWORD2, MM (which is now enabled — yes, we really skipped it in 2.8.0 by accident), mTropolis, NANCY, SCUMM, TWINE, Ultima, and V-Cruise.
The Android, Atari and macOS ports received multiple bug fixes, mostly for improving overall stability and preventing some crashes we’ve seen under certain circumstances.
The detailed list of improvements is available here.
As always, you can find the latest release on our Downloads page.
Go grab it while it's hot — enjoy!

Decompilation of 3D Pinball for Windows – Space Cadet - k4zmu2a/SpaceCadetPinball

The classic. A decompile and reverse-engineer of a lot of people's first PC game. Builds on Windows, Linux, and Mac, and ports to Android, Switch, PS Vita, LG webOS TV, and many more weird and wonderful platforms.
I've been playing this on my Steam Deck (you can install it from the Discover store). Despite my years of experience I'm still terrible at it. I think I once got to level 3.

CorsixTH (Theme Hospital)
Open source clone of Theme Hospital. Contribute to CorsixTH/CorsixTH development by creating an account on GitHub.
This is a wonderful port of Bullfrog's Theme Hospital, that I can't recommend enough. I loved this game as a kid, and have found I love it even more as an adult. I'm also now better at it, lol.
Dominatrix (SiN)
Apparently based on leaked source, this port looks promising!

FS2Open (Descent FreeSpace 2)
This is one I've been chomping at the bit to try, but haven't gotten the chance to. It's been in development since 2002, and thanks to a lot of modern additions, makes the game look absolutely gorgeous.
Here's a video someone put together, that compares the original retail release, with FS2Open. It's really tasty.
