Somewhere, somehow, someone will always find something odd.

Personally, I think it IS a valuable piece of information, even though I would not play this particular game, since I decided to boycott Bungie (not that I have a choice on Linux) for the way they have treated their employees.

Also this game looks a bit too "GenZ" for me, style-wise, but that's just the personal preference of a boomer.

I always love seeing these open source versions of my favorite childhood games. From Civ2 to Cannon Fodder to this.

100% of my Steam games played in 2025 were... New World. Until they announced the sunset.

Everything else was games with GOG offline installers or Warframe, GW2 and PoE1/2 with their respective standalone launchers.

Open Fodder, an open source port of the classic Cannon Fodder v2.0 released

I wish I had known sooner that there is an open source project of this game. Jools & Jops forever.

Also, the Cannon Fodder recruiting music (starting at 2:40min https://youtu.be/Qc2fulUF64w?si=kVAiz77PpbopUulP&t=160) [External Link] is a melody that I regularly hum for no reason, even though I haven't played this game in over 30 years.
