Yo Frankie! for the friends - is an open source 3D platformer game

The Blender Foundation is showing the world that open source can replace those extremely pricy, high-end applications.

You play with Frankie, an angry looking squirrel, and have a pretty rough time in the wonderful surroundings. All the animals attack you, and hot pools of magma aren’t very unusual. You can defend yourself by using your tail, or by throwing nuts (though the latter one will prove harder than expected). Expect an addicting platformer, of unseen quality for its league.
