Good idea @JoseFaeti . We could add some other open sources games too. Can you start doing this one?
I think this is a great idea.
We should add http://fabiensanglard.net/ as well, he has reviewed the architecture for several games:
Quake 2: http://fabiensanglard.net/quake2/ Quake 3: http://fabiensanglard.net/quake3/index.php Doom 3: http://fabiensanglard.net/doom3/index.php Etc..
@Zolomon great website! Should we add code reviews as a new section or as a link next to the source? I'm afraid there won't be too many code reviews to justify a new section.
Closing this one. Already started here #34
Hey guys, i think code review in these cases isn't much quite the idea of this repo. However we could add the fabien's blog on the Blog subsection
I think a great way to learn game development is also to inspect and study other games source code. How about a section to list complete game sources (especially famous ones)? For example, ID Software already released sources for games like Doom and Quake.
Some examples:
ID games ftp://ftp.idsoftware.com/idstuff/ (some are also on GitHub, eg ftp://ftp.idsoftware.com/idstuff/) Duke Nukem 3D http://www.3drealms.com/duke3d/index.html (jump to Downloads > duke3dsource.zip) Prince of Persia https://github.com/jmechner/Prince-of-Persia-Apple-II Sim City https://code.google.com/p/micropolis/ (http://weblogs.asp.net/bsimser/simcity-source-code-released-to-the-wild-let-the-ports-begin) from Wikipedia "On January 10, 2008 the SimCity source code was released under the free software GPL 3 license under the original working title- Micropolis."
A list like that on wiki: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_commercial_video_games_with_later_released_source_code
Since many other companies are open sourcing their past games, I think it could be an important section to add.
