What is Overgrowth?
Overgrowth is a third-person 3D action game that allows you to leap and climb through sprawling levels as a ninja rabbit, and engage in intricate and brutal combat with a variety of weapons and enemies. It is still in development, so while the mechanics and features are mostly in place, there is no campaign yet, and players mostly have fun with the easy-to-use modding tools, and fighting in the arena. You can follow the development of the game with our alpha update videos like the one above.

Lugaru
As for Lugaru, the data files are now also under an open license (CC-BY-SA 3.0), this means that Lugaru is fully playable on the open source engine without needing to own a copy of it. Check out the website for the open source version. The actual game engine is under the GPL license.

Quoting: 14I don't know where the bunny idea came from, but the contact and animation look quite good.
I really want to think the idea came from Samurai Warrior / Usagi Yojimbo on the C-64. Although I do hope that the main character in this game doesn't perform a seppuku at any point.

If there are no licensing changes from the Lugaru git, it's a mix of 3.0 and 4.0.
