What is FreeGameStore?

FreeGameStore.online is a marketplace for free, open-source PWA games. Every listed game lives in its own public GitHub repo (you keep ownership), ships under the MIT license, has no tracking, and is audited weekly against a shared compliance suite. The storefront aggregates them, drives traffic, and provides the shared backend (auth, leaderboards, brand assets).

What you ship

A static PWA. No server. No subscription. No vendor lock-in. Your repo + Cloudflare Pages.

The standard surface is:

my-game/
  web/
    src/             # React + Vite app
    public/          # static assets
    package.json     # @freegamestore/games is the only required dep
    vite.config.ts   # vite-plugin-pwa for offline + installable
  .github/workflows/ # CI: lockfile, build, compliance gate
  LICENSE            # MIT, mandatory
  README.md

What FreeGameStore provides

• Hosting at <your-game>.freegamestore.online via a Cloudflare Pages project we provision when we add you to the registry.
• Brand-matched UI shell (<GameShell>, <GameTopbar>). The storefront’s look-and-feel for free.
• Auth across the catalog. Sign in once with GitHub → recognized on every game. useAuth.
• A leaderboard backend. Submit scores, render top/recent. No infra to run. useLeaderboard.
• Synthesized SFX with mute integration. Zero audio assets to ship. useGameSounds.
• A compliance gate. CI fails the build if your game drifts from the brand or breaks an offline expectation. Why we audit.

What FreeGameStore doesn’t provide

• A backend you can write to (apart from leaderboards + auth). Stateful games keep state in localStorage or run their own backend.
• Paid features. Free apps/games go on the free side. Paid features ship to ProAppStore / ProGameStore (separate brands).
• A CMS for your game. The repo is the source of truth.
