Codebases

Here's a list of Fennel codebases you might be interested in:

LÖVE Games

Most Fennel games use LÖVE, a powerful 2D game framework.

Note that most of these games were created during the constraints of various game jams, and thus often are thrown together quickly without much concern for long-term readability.
