Free online games platform (juegos gratis), with an open source client. LGPL repo for Desura client. Potentially out of date. See https://github.com/desura/desura-app for newest (LGPL) client.
I'm on the 2013-08-24 build from makson96's weekly PPA and the launcher icons I just generated didn't work.
On closer inspection, it turned out that they were failing because, as generated, they bypassed the desura_launch_Play.sh script (or whatever else it's called for games like Trauma with more than one Play option) and called the game binary directly.
Manually editing the generated launchers to call the play script fixed them. (I assume, because the games didn't take kindly to being called without the script's LD_LIBRARY_PATH override.)
