About

HN Games is a manually curated collection of games made by the HN community.

Mission

There are lots of small gems out there made by creative developers and artists, and we want to showcase them.
Our goal is to provide a platform where you can discover such games and enjoy them.

Game Selection Criteria

We carefully evaluate games based on the following criteria:

✅ What We Accept

  • Games posted on HN, made by HN users
  • Free or paid games
  • Games for any platform (eg. web, mobile, console)

❌ What We Don't Accept

  • Bug-ridden or unplayable games
  • Unfinished, early-stage prototypes
  • Games that need to be built from source
  • Games binaries hosted on platforms that don't scan for malware
  • NSFW games

Ultimately the decision depends solely on the maintainers of this project in order to ease things up and keep the project fun to maintain.

Contributing

We welcome game submissions from the community. If you know a game that meets our criteria, please submit it. Similarly, if you notice a game in our catalog that doesn't meet these standards, let us know and we'll review it.

To encourage all kinds of contributions and give back to the HN community, this project is open source and it always will be. The source code is available on GitHub.
