Here are some I’ve come across over the years, in case people want / need to play games of a given engine in a system other than the supported ones, or (points at a physical copy of Monkey Island I have) if the game is having trouble running on the supported system.
Also, considering if I should include more game-specific tools too, since Aquaria is pretty close there already, and if I should add how to identify the engines.
Also disclaimer, not all are FOSS / OSS.
ScummVM
Too many engines to reasonably list them, so as an exception, listing ScummVM instead of its supported engines.
➢ Web browsers and web servers (latter e.g. Python, run on the HTML file’s folder with python -m http.server 8000 and opening on the address http://127.0.0.1:8000/).
Nice list, but i have Extra Engines i want to include:(Only engines considered “legal”,note: some of these i didnt test myself,but this may contain reverse engineering projects . )
For Omni-Engine (Lego Island branch only)
comments: it also adds new features and improvements to Lego Island like multiplayer(Experimental),WASD Support,etc.
ISLE-Portable: Play it on your browser Source code
For Touhou's/Seihou's engine games
PyTouhou (For EOSD branch only):
Caveats: missing some features,git server down due to LLMS,pre-build binaries are quite old. Downloads Source Code (likely down)
for PC-98 branch only:
Caveats: it doesn’t seem like it has cross-platform support.
comments: seems like its mainly focused on reverse engineering Source code
marginally releated to Touhou but not really part of Touhou Project:
For Seihou Project (Shuusou Gyoku branch):
comments: Windows only binaries,Linux binary available as a Flatpak. Source code
For Source engine games
comment: steam_legacy branch only,also does not work with TF2 Branch games,despite its name it also works on Windows,Macos and Most Linux distros. Wiki about it
The SDK is also a thing too,but am not gonna include it here.
For Id tech 4 engine games(i think DOOM 3 branch only)
