	tl;dr: Nanolathe is an open-source, MIT-licensed 2.5D RTS engine that reimplements Total Annihilation via clean-room research, with native builds for Windows, Mac, and Linux plus a browser demo of the original three missions. It features a modern GPU renderer (with light, glow, and 2× art) alongside a Classic mode, and supports single-player campaigns, skirmish, Survival, and online multiplayer using game files you supply from GOG, Steam, or original CDs.
	HN Discussion: ↓Beyond All Reason is a superior existing spiritual successor to Total Annihilation ↓Spring engine already provides similar clean-room TA reimplementation, questioning this project's value •Someone is building a similar modernization effort for Supreme Commander instead ↓The project has poor documentation and error messages, other open source alternatives seem better ↓Supreme Commander and Planetary Annihilation are more legitimate successors to TA
