Repository of the database of (initially primarily commercial/proprietary) games that run on OpenBSD.

Note: This may be subject to change in the future, so be sure to check regularly for updates to this README.md before working on the repository.

At this point, the primary database is a text file openbsd-games.db. See below for its required format.

• text table
• gemini/gemtext export

• switch to sqlite3 as primary database
• web interface to rearrange the table data interactively (e.g. Shiny Web App)
• publish updated releases for easy integration and consumption
• license decision
