General guidance from repository metadata, not legal advice. How we score
From the README
This is the source of https://osgameclones.com. Feel free to add new games or improve information about those already in the database by submitting a pull request or opening an issue.
All of the games and their references to the original games are stored in YAML files under
gamesandoriginals. All information is inside, and you should more or less understand what's going on by reading it. Sorting is alphabetical, with the exception of ScummVM, just because it's so many games at once.Fill in the game form presented when you create a new issue. Even better if you edit the files in the
gamesdirectory directly. Your changes will be submitted as a pull request. All games are validated against the rules in theschema/games.yamlvalidation file.
