Open Source Game Clones

I recently visited the
http://osgameclones.com/ site.
In the Prince of Persia category, they currently have FreePrince and SDLPoP.
(SDLPoP was added by segrax:
viewtopic.php?p=16475#p16475 )
So, oitofelix and lvcabral (and maybe others?), feel free to add your remakes!
Instructions are on the top of the site.
Here is the list of all the possible data that can be entered about a game.
I miss the list of supported OSes, though.

Hm, me too.
I've created
this issue about it on their GitHub.

Two options, both require a
GitHub account:
- (harder) Create a pull request after editing
p.yaml in a fork.
- (easier) Request the addition by creating an
issue.

His
reaction doesn't make sense to me.
"Possibly, but I think this more important when the supported hardware or software is more exotic or vintage."
Is he saying that, in his opinion, such a feature would be more useful if the port is available for, for instance, OS/2, than if it's available for Linux or OS X, because most stuff is on the three major platforms nowadays?

I guess he meant something like that.
Maybe he especially meant ports that work *only* on an "exotic" system, like
lvcabral's port for Roku.
(Of course you can just ask him what he meant...)

I think salvadorc17 already has one, linked from his signature.
