Add open source games
Added by
blauerdaemon Add open source games to de shop directly or via an API.
marcob I agree with @Doof1234: that would be awesome but GOG server space is costly. There's already SourceForge/GitHub for that
Doof1234 I think it would be better to add an open source section. I think most of them are free games.
LinuxFire Pour la découvert, je n'avais jamais entendu parlé de: Arx Fatalis
Et GOG y trouve sont conte par un peut de publicité :-)
For her discovered, I had never understood spoken of: Arx Fatalis
And GOG finds are tale by one there can of publicity :-)
IdkSomeNublette I'll add UFO: Alien Invasion (X-Com-ish game in Quake 2 engine) to the list. Most of it is competently made.
gliamonster Pioneer and Vegastrike are two worth mentioning.
Redvis @Petrel: Just to convince more people to use their game client instead of steam?
That would be great if GOG will become Github for games!

shaddim Or even better, GOG should convince the right holders of games to make the source available ... win-win situation for everyone. Then games can be patched, fixed and ported by the community while it still can be sold by GOG, see e.g. Arx fatalis. (wish for this: www.gog.com/wishlist/site/obtain_source_code_for_games_where_possible)
Gaerzi Open-source doesn't necessarily mean free. The source code is open and freely-available, yes, great. Doesn't mean anything for the game data. Id Software's old games (from Wolfenstein 3D to Doom 3) are open-source, and yet they're still commercially sold (though not on GOG, this should be remedied!).
Hey, Arx Fatalis is open-source, too. Another game that should be on GOG.
martiz You could also just donate some financial support to the developers (for example maintaining the website containing the open source games).
harry-jerry hmm...maybe this is more what humble bundle and indie royale is about...or sourceforge and moddb/indiedb
WarlockLord Yeah, a few freebies is one thing, but open source projects don't really seem fitting (especially in light of that most of them are unfinished/ongoing rather than static releases.)
Kuroko I don't see the point. Gog.com is in a business of selling games.
Petrell Why excactly? They're free (most of them anyway). I can somehow understand commercial games that have made source available (there are few on GOG even now) but why would GOG need to add free games that haven't ever been commercial?
