The Openglad Project

Openglad is a 4-player (split-screen!), overhead, hack-and-slash game, available for tons of platforms!

What is this?

Openglad has been under development on and off since 1993:

1993 - 2002:: Forgotten Sages developed Gladiator, eventually open-sourcing it in Summer 2002.
2002 - 2004:: Snowstorm Entertainment ported it to Windows, Linux, and MacOS and released it as Openglad.
2012 - 2015:: Dinomage Games modernized the source code and ported it to the Ouya and Android.
2026 - present:: the community has resumed Openglad maintenance and development, adding in-browser play, networked/online play, and many modernization features!
