A few years ago we released the source code Overgrowth's predecessor, Lugaru. Now the data is available under the same license! Check out the OSS Lugaru HD website for more information. They just released version 1.1 of the open source Lugaru to celebrate the new campaign in Overgrowth, check the release notes and downloads here.
