FLOW: A catalogue of open-licensed games, art, music, software

Hi all,

I wanted to share Free, Libre and Open Works (or FLOW), a catalogue of creative works that are under less restrictive copyright licenses. It's an update of a wiki I created over a decade ago, which ran into hosting problems. This iteration is hosted on GitHub, so you can report issues, suggest new entries ("New issue > New entry submission"), "push" your own improvements, and so on.

There are over 600 "tabletop gaming" entries, including over 500 tabletop roleplaying games, supplements and so on. The site distinguishes between "free & open" licenses, which allow for commercial re-use without restrictions, and more limited licenses (like the Open Game License, Creative Commons NonCommercial and Creative Commons NoDerivatives).

There's also a section for Art, and sub-sections for Illustration, Symbols and so on -- all of which could be useful for game designers (or to use for character portraits and so on in your home games.)

How you can help --
I'm really interested to hear how the site can be made more useful and navigable. I realise a list of 600 items isn't particularly accessible.

I have created a featured entry section at the top (and will gladly add any works that people think are worth featuring), but otherwise it's unsorted.

Unfortunately as a "static" site I don't think I can't add things like reviews or star ratings or promote pages that get more clicks and engagement.

---

Of course, I also want to know any content I've missed -- you can post here, email me, or (best of all) fill out the form yourself ("New issue > New entry submission")
