There should be a platform just for open source games
- Let's call it OG for Open source Games.
- Something with a Flat structure, that acts as a hub for these projects. We could call it Flathub! ;)
- itch.io works good enough
  
  Does it? For finding only open source games?
  
  Open source games are tagged as open source, which makes it very easy to discover
  Though there is no harm in having a browser for foss games we already have a load of people using itch.io for that exact purpose
