OpenJK

OpenJK is a community effort to maintain and improve the game and engine powering Jedi Academy and Jedi Outcast, while maintaining full backwards compatibility with the existing games and mods.
This project does not intend to add major features, rebalance, or otherwise modify core gameplay.

Our aims are to:

  • Improve the stability of the engine by fixing bugs and improving performance.
  • Support more hardware (x86_64, Arm, Apple Silicon) and software platforms (Linux, macOS)
  • Provide a clean base from which new code modifications can be made.
