XTux - Network shoot-'em-up game featuring free software mascots

In XTux, you can play as Tux the Linux penguin, the BSD daemon, or some other open source characters (GNU, Vi, KDE dragon, etc.) and either fight each other over the network or join forces to take on Microsoft, killing MS Henchmen, Bill the Borg, Clippy the Office assistant paperclip, and others. It features 3D-rendered graphics, a wide variety of maps (including a Linux desktop, SLASHDOT!, the street, an office) and a cheesy plot.
