You can still download .kkrieger. It's not actually good but it's neat for what it is. https://kkrieger.en.softonic.com/

It gives up a very...the Void kind of vibe, like you're in a place you absolutely shouldn't be. I love it! It's also 96 kilobytes, which is my main reason for posting it. Just a cool example of demoscene,

Anyway, here's an old, free game that's probably only really fun if you have someone sharing the keyboard. I'd be surprised if anyone knows of this one. Tremor 3, a top down deathmatch game that me and my brother only ever really against the AI. The twist is that said AI is actually a roaming, giant robot boss that can really mess you up. We actually played it again on a trip a couple years back and it was still a lot of fun. I was always sad the game was never expanded or got a sequel.

Couple of big Tiberian Sun mods turned standalone games. Dawn of the Tiberium Age is an expanded remake of the original C&C and Red Alert. Meanwhile Twisted Insurrection takes place in an alternate Tiberian timeline where NOD won the first war.  Both games feature their own singleplayer campaigns, skirmish modes, and multiplayer.

There's also a demo for Soldat 2, but that might end up being paid? I guess the original had a free and a premium version so maybe it'll follow that same route.

There are a tonne of Freespace 2 mods and many of them are completely standalone. What this means is all you have to do is install the Knossos launcher and download them through that. Here are some of the big ones. The Babylon Project is one of the first TCs released from the game and adapts Babylon 5 dogfighting to the FS2 engine. I never watched the show so I've no clue how accurate it is but it's well worth a look. Comes with a bunch of short campaigns and one-off missions. Another tv-show-made-game, Diaspora is a Battlestar Galactica Mod. Short but sweet. Wing Commander Saga is something of a fan-remake of the WC original games, featuring a large, fully-voiced campaign complete that probably retells that story. I dunno, never played those old titles. Solaris is more of a military sci-fi game, currently only the first 10 missions have been released. It uses a similar combat engine to Diaspora, meaning no shields and the ability to engage semi-Newtonian physics. Finally, you've got Wings of Dawn: E1&2, which is anime as all hell. It's probably also my favourite FS2 mod and that includes Blue Planet because of how wild it goes with its mission design and bossfights and missile swarms. Definitely worth a go!
