This repository contains the source code for The BIG List of Video Game Randomizers, a community project created and originally published in 2016 by Guillaume Fortin-Debigaré.
The project has been continuously maintained by him based on countless contributions by the community over the years, and is now maintained directly via open-source contributions.
You can request updates to the list either by submitting an issue with the Submit New Randomizer
template, or in the #list-submissions
channel in the Discord.
Pull requests from the public are very welcome - if you wish to become a maintainer or need help contributing, please join the Discord and see #list-maintenance
. We recommend using VSCode if you wish to edit the series YAMLs, as the workspace contains configuration to use our schema by default.
The site's Jekyll/Liquid templates are stored in src
and src/_includes/
, while the data is stored as a YAML file per series in src/series/
.
Note that all games must be in a series; if a game does not belong to a series, give the series the same name as the game.

You can also run the Jekyll Build & Deploy
GitHub action & download the outputted artifact if you do not wish to install Jekyll locally.
