Parkour, impulse boosts, dashing, and other tricks

Warsow (Linux, Win & Mac)
Speed and movement is what Warsow is all about.
Like a true cyberathlete you jump, dash, dodge, and walljump your way through the game. Grab power-ups before your enemy does, plant a bomb before anyone sees you, and steal the enemy’s flag before they know what is going on!
Our goal is to offer a fast and fun competitive first-person shooter without hard graphical violence - Warsow has no blood or guts flying around. Red circles instead of blood indicate hits and colored triangles replace guts as gib effects.
Minetest! Open source Minecraft. I'm on a great server https://illuna-minetest.tk/, join up for some free gear

OpenTTD is a transport simulation game based upon the popular game Transport Tycoon Deluxe, written by Chris Sawyer. It attempts to mimic the original game as closely as possible while extending it with new features.

Shattered Pixel Dungeon (Android, available on F-Droid)
Shattered Pixel Dungeon is a Roguelike RPG, with pixel art graphics and lots of variety and replayability. Every game is unique, with four different playable characters, randomized levels and enemies, and over 150 items to collect and use. The game is simple to get into, but has lots of depth. Strategy is required if you want to win! It's a fork of Pixel Dungeon.
Unfortunately the proprietary assets (sprites, sounds, etc.) need to be copied from the original RCT2 game, but in the future, fully FOSS asset packs could be made. Install info is on their wiki. For now, the required files can be obtained for free from the official demo version of RCT2 following links mentioned on this page
OpenRA is an open source project that recreates and modernizes classic real time strategy games, like Red Alert, Command & Conquer, and Dune 2000.
RetroArch is a frontend for emulators, game engines and media players.
It enables you to run classic games on a wide range of computers and consoles through its slick graphical interface. Settings are also unified so configuration is done once and for all.
In addition to this, you are able to run original game discs (CDs) from RetroArch.
RetroArch has advanced features like shaders, netplay, rewinding, next-frame response times, runahead, machine translation, blind accessibility features, and more!
Most if not all FOSS games are shyte. Nintendo made the horrid mistake of opening their doors to indie devs and look at their e shop. Eshyte!
Not all, see https://www.thedarkmod.com/main/ Shyte generally Nintendo games, FOSS or not.
Also in the Raddle list https://raddle.me/f/Games/35235/update-now-part-of-the-wiki-extended-list-of-free-libre
