I decided to write down a list of complete (no alpha/beta), playable (no proprietary dependencies), FOSS videogames.
I added all the games I could find online + all of the games that came to my memory.
Feel free to have a look to see if there’s something you didn’t know. And please suggest anything I missed, but please do not suggest pre-release or unfinished games.
Thank you!
I have this other bookmarked link that may be helpful:

One of the greatest shmups ever, the creator open sourced it a while ago. Still weirdly addictive too, only DOS era game I still play regularly
Holy shit. I played the shit out of this game when I was a kid. I had no idea someone ported it like this.
There’s even an android port, although it’s pretty hard to do the ship twiddles on touchscreen lol
I have this list bookmarked. Maybe it can help:
https://github.com/bobeff/open-source-games#business-and-tycoon-gamesI’m so glad to hear someone liked Strife enough to do a port of it. I did not do well trying to play that thing as a dumb kid, but I was entranced by the tone and scope of it. Probably had something to do with my ttrpg writing habits.
