Github Compo List
Hello!
I’ve started putting together a list of Ludum Dare 57 entries that I have played (mostly from the Compo / HTML5 genre) that include a GitHub repository. I really appreciate when developers create a repository to share their sources—it's a great way to learn from each other and keep the spirit of open development going strong. I like to read the commits messages as a sort of glimpse in the game making process.
You can check out the list here:

Why share your repo?
- It's a great way to see how others approached the development process (though sometimes there is only the release commit)
- You can dive into the source and learn from each other’s code.
- Repositories are easy to fork if you want to explore or remix an idea.
- ⭐⭐ Starring repos is a simple way to show appreciation for someone’s work. ⭐⭐
If you’re sharing your game’s repository, consider including the following in your readme
- A link to your Ludum Dare submission page. So people can come and vote or see the results in the end (or use the https://badges.jaxs.onl website to embed the rating after the competition is over)
- Ludum Dare badges to quickly identify the edition and mode:
md
- Screenshots or GIFs
- Instructions on how to run or build the game
- License

If you used GitHub during the jam and shared your code, that’s already awesome! If it's HTML5 / or playable on a Mac share it in the comment. I'll come play, rate and star your repository!
