GridWars 2 is a clone of the popular Xbox Live Arcade game, Geometry Wars. It runs on Linux, Mac OS X, and Windows. And it’s totally free.
If you are a fan of Geometry Wars, this is worth a look. It has strikingly similar visuals and gameplay. Only downside is the lack of variety… It has but one gametype, which is just to kill as many enemies as you can to rank up points.
The game can be played with a controller (or “joypad”), keyboard, mouse, or a hybrid control scheme that incorporates both the keyboard and mouse. Obviously the controller is your best bet here, but I find the keyboard control scheme quite playable.
Again, definitely worth a look if you’re a fan of Geometry Wars. I won’t write a review on it, because it’s really quite a simple game, but it’s totally free, so you’ve got nothing to lose, and you can play it no matter what OS you run.
