Quote from github:

OpenOMF is an Open Source remake of "One Must Fall 2097" by Diversions Entertainment. Since the original DOS game from 1994 uses IPX networking and is a pain to set up, the community needed a better solution to keep playing the game we love. Together with networking, we try to make it easier to play One Must Fall in its original glory on multiple platforms (Linux, Mac OSX, Windows, BSD to name a few).

For more detailed information about the project, please see http://www.openomf.org/

I also recall being very excited over a 3D sequel that never materialized.

In my mind the original has always been in 3D and thus even more impressive on DOS.

Pre-rendered 3D models as 2D sprites. Looked quite cool back then, but IMHO aged very poorly.
