       In my spare time I maintain osgameclones.com, a curated listing of over 1000 #OpenSource game clones and remakes. I usually see projects fall off and get abandoned, but recently I learned that OpenSA, a remake of the obscure 1999 🇦🇺 #RTS Swarm Assault, was completed shortly after being added in 2021!https://dzierzan.itch.io/opensaIt's great to see open source games reach the finish line, especially those showcasing odd gems like this. Made with the #OpenRA engine, pretty cool!#GameDev #RetroGames

       I've never played Swarm Assault despite also having the idea of an RTS with insects and other creatures so this should have been up my alley had I known about it. Definitely going to check this one out! It appears the game is discontinued but available as abandonware online.As someone who has also made reverse-engineered games, it's trickier than most people think, so kudos to the dev team for pulling it off!
