There are tons of open source projects out there, most hosted at SourceForge. One of the best open source games is Sauerbraten, a first-person shooter (FPS). The FPS genre has got rather repetitive with tons of Xbox and Xbox 360 games all being alike. Sauerbraten is fresh, even through it has been around for years.
Sauerbraten allows you to play either online or offline in an arena or "map" of your choice. That sounds normal, right? Well, Sauerbraten also allows you to edit said maps and even start a new map and create it from the ground up... or down. Unlike its predicessor, Cube, you can have multiple levels to your scructures, so pretty much anything is possible.
Better yet, Sauerbraten allows you to cooperatively edit a map with as many people as you can find to join your server. This makes Sauerbraten similar to Halo 3's Forge, only you're making the maps from scratch; not just moving spawns around.
Sauerbraten has no physics to its gameplay, so don't expect to be able to spawn crates high in the sky and watch them break as they hit the ground. If you like Quake or Unreal Tournament, you'll still enjoy playing Sauerbraten.
