What is Warsow?

Set in a futuristic cartoon-like world where rocketlauncher-wielding pigs and lasergun-carrying cyberpunks roam the streets, Warsow is a completely free fast-paced first-person shooter (FPS) for Windows, Linux and Mac OS X.

Speed and movement, that's what Warsow is all about. Like a true cyberathlete you jump, dash, dodge and walljump your way through the game. Grab those power-ups before your enemy does, plant the bomb before anyone sees you, and steal the enemy's flag before anyone knows what's going on!

A handful of popular gametypes come shipped with Warsow, like Capture the Flag, Team Deathmatch, Clan Arena, Instagib and Duel. Warsow invites you to add to this list, by creating your own custom gametypes with the brand new gametype scripting system!

Dear IndieDB/ModDB Community, we need your help! 

Warsow is up on Steam Greenlight, and we're now in need of community support  to get selected for distribution on Steam. Helping is easy! I simply ask you, dear reader, "would you play this game if it were available in Steam?" 


If your answer is yes, all you do is simply head on over to Steam Greenlight, log in, and vote for us! Another way to help us out is by spreading the word :-).


So in short, please vote for us & spread the word, and let's hope Steam can bring a little increase to the Warsow population :-). Thanks!

Doesn't work here, on an AMD64 cpu. I've read that version 1.01 fixes it by disabling SSE3. Please, upload last version to Desura.

"Time for another Warsow duel cup organized by the elusive Puffdar. Thanks to a generous amount of donations SpartaCup is able to spread the prize money across the top 8 finishers in their next installment. 270€ will be the prize pool waiting for our competitors in this Christmas cup."

I had that problem on Debian Squeeze 64 bit. I successfully compiled libpng15.so.15 from source and I still received that error.
It turns out I had inadvertently managed to update libpng12-0 at some point? To a newer release so I forced it back to 1.2.44-1+squeeze4 with Synaptic Package manager. This solved the problem for me! Good Luck.

aaaa, my favourite game, what to say? Well, Warsow is a multiplayer game that advances what made quake and ut great. Speady, tricky fast paced shooter gameplay. If I would need one word to describe warsow, then it would be: Speed Warsow is the fastest shooter in the world, combining interesting comiclike graphics with a lot of different gametypes ranging from ctf to bomb. Also Warsow is highly editable to meet each persons individual preference. I really don't know what to say, I play this game…
