Urban Chaos
Game: Urban Chaos (Windows, 1999)
OpenChaos: an unofficial modernization of Urban Chaos (Mucky Foot Productions, 1999), developed with AI on top of the original source code that Mike Diskett released under the MIT license in 2017. It moves to a new OpenGL renderer, makes the engine 64-bit and cross-platform, unlocks the frame rate, uses new audio and video backends, and reworks the controls and camera, with Xbox and DualSense gamepads and any screen resolution. According to the README it is playable from start to finish on Windows, macOS (Apple Silicon), and Linux (Steam Deck), with no critical bugs although some minor ones remain. It works with any language version of the game and with mods that only change resources. Version 1.0.2 (June 27) fixed audio and stability issues.
You needYour own copy of Urban Chaos, from Steam, GOG, or on disc (any language works); on Windows you copy OpenChaos.exe into the game folder. Plus Windows, macOS with Apple Silicon, or Linux.
