This library helps you make original games in Unreal Engine 5 and Construct 3 without starting from zero. Each entry is a game or asset pack you can study (read how it works) or, if the license allows, build on.

Nothing is cloned or shipped. Licenses marked Verified had their license text read. Asset licenses are checked less closely than code licenses, so check art and audio before shipping anything.

  • 185licenses verified

Cut for readability: this page shows 250 of 1025 entries. The full data (every entry, filtered-out ones included) is in all-candidates.json next to this file. Earlier versions are saved as backup files in the same folder.

Start here: top picks

The best-scoring verified entry in each genre. All have a permissive code license, verified. Asset terms still need a look before shipping.

License rules of thumb

  • Code and assets are licensed separately. A game can have MIT code and restricted art. Check both.
  • Permissive (MIT, zlib, BSD, Apache, CC0): usable in a paid, closed-source game with the required credit.
  • GPL family: fine to study. Shipping GPL code means releasing your game's source under GPL.
  • CC-BY / CC-BY-SA art: credit required. SA means derivatives use the same license.
  • Non-commercial licenses: study only if your game is paid.
  • Never ship original Doom or Quake assets. The engines are GPL, but the original game data is still commercial.
  • Ideas, mechanics and tuning numbers are free to learn from. Copied code and art are not.

Questions for you

  1. Which genre is the first original game? That decides which references matter most.
  2. UE5 or Construct 3 first? It changes whether 3D or 2D references come first.
  3. Will the first game be sold? If yes, only permissive code and clear art can go in it.
  4. Do you have a specific Madness-style game in mind as a study target? None is listed yet.
  5. Which entries should get a screenshot and a closer asset check next?
