Homegames is a free open-source game platform that allows users to create, play, and share games directly in their browser without an account. Launched after eight years of development, it supports live multiplayer sessions, asset management, and self-hosting capabilities.
Homegames is a new free and open-source game platform designed for creating, playing, and sharing games in web browsers. It was primarily developed as a solo project over eight years, starting in 2018. Users can jump into the action without needing to create an account, making it accessible to a wide audience.
The platform includes a simple code editor for game creation, allowing for live previews that enable users to test changes in real-time within multiplayer sessions. Additionally, game assets can be easily managed within the platform, where users can upload files or create assets directly in the studio.
Homegames is licensed under the GPLv3, meaning both the platform's code and the games are open for public access. Users can fork the code and create their own versions, and the platform is designed to be self-hostable on personal hardware, which increases flexibility and control.
A key feature of Homegames is its commitment to preservation; if the official website were to become unavailable, users would still be able to host and play their games independently. This aspect addresses concerns about the longevity and availability of games created on the platform.
