Panache: Steampunk French RTS Fork of Battle Drones

Summary & Key Takeaways ​

  • "Panache" is a French-language fork of the open-source mobile RTS game "Battle Drones."
  • The game has been reskinned to a Belle Époque (1900s France) steampunk theme.
  • It features new animated intros, steampunk models, and French-inspired music.
  • The fork primarily focuses on aesthetic updates rather than gameplay changes.
  • This project exemplifies the creative potential of open-source collaboration.

Our Commentary ​

This is just pure joy. Seeing an open-source game get such a creative and charming reskin is exactly what I love about the community. The steampunk 1900s France theme sounds absolutely fantastic, and the new models are genuinely cool. It's a perfect example of how open-source fosters delightful, unexpected collaborations.
