It's a shameless plug but I keep a game index site with a fair list of Linux games:<p><a href="http://www.gamefndr.com/games?game%5Bplatform_ids%5D%5B%5D=7" rel="nofollow">http://www.gamefndr.com/games?game%5Bplatform_ids%5D%5B%5D=7</a><p>The site is still only half-done and is a work in progress. (and features ugly deep link URLs)<p>BTW slick work on the lgdb tools and emulators listings.

Well there has to be a replacement for The Linux Game Tome (<a href="http://www.happypenguin.org/" rel="nofollow">http://www.happypenguin.org/</a>) but this one just feels soulless and generic. The Linux Game Tome was never very good from a technical point of view but it had style.

I was going to recommend <a href="http://www.happypenguin.org/" rel="nofollow">http://www.happypenguin.org/</a> but apparently this week they announced its demise, sad to see it go.<p>There is also <a href="http://www.penguspy.com/" rel="nofollow">http://www.penguspy.com/</a> which contains a well curated list of Linux games.

For games specifically distributed under free software licenses take a look at <a href="https://libregamewiki.org/Main_Page" rel="nofollow">https://libregamewiki.org/Main_Page</a>. SourceForge's games section [1] is also still a surprisingly good tool for discovering smaller and more obscure Linux game titles. I wish there was this sort of cataloguing going on on GitHub (even if it was through a third-party website).<p>[1] <a href="https://sourceforge.net/directory/games/" rel="nofollow">https://sourceforge.net/directory/games/</a>

I tried to create an account using Yahoo! OpenID to submit one of my games: <a href="http://www.guacosoft.com/njam" rel="nofollow">http://www.guacosoft.com/njam</a><p>I got this error from Yahoo!:<p>Sorry! You will not be able to link your Yahoo! account with this website or application. It is using an older version of the OpenID technology.

How can gaming on linux be taken seriously when the same tired old ports and poor quality games dominate the "top" list by user reviews?<p>You'd get a better sense of linux gaming with Steam for Linux.

No way to filter by DRM free criteria there?
