Collection of free assets for daily game makers: words, sounds and images.
I collect daily games at dles.gg and I see a lot of games created every single week. At the time of writing, there's 852 active games in the collection. That's incredible and I want to support the movement a bit.
When I made my first game Rotaboxes I had no idea where to start and how to do it. I had a rough idea of a gameplay, I knew HTML, CSS and Javascript but I needed a picture. I just googled "free images" and stumbled on Unsplash. I ended up downloading one cute picture of a dog and with that I developed my game. Without a service like Unsplash, my game wouldn't exist.
The goal of this repo is to create a collection of free assets for daily games, maintain and conserve them for future use.
So far I see 3 main categories that I'd like to cover: Words, Images and Sounds.
Even though you can technically find all words used in Wordle in their source code - it is explicitly against their terms and conditions and you might get in trouble if you do so. Therefore I've taken the words from ENABLE (Enhanced North American Benchmark LExicon) wordlist and split them into chunks based on letter length to simplify your life, so it's up to you if you create a game based on 5-letter long words, or 3 or who knows 21, totally up to you.

I decided to open source the entire collection of DLES I collect at dles.gg. I will be updating this list at the end of each week. If you're in search for the latest games, please head to dles.gg/games/newest instead, otherwise use this mirror if you need to download the entire games list at once.
- DLES - 874 daily games listed on dles.gg with names, URLs and descriptions, sorted by a date added to the collection
This is an open source project and contributions are welcome. If you know of a word list, dictionary, or useful asset that should be here, you can help in two ways:
- Open an issue - Suggest a new resource, report a bug or a broken link. No coding required — just describe what you'd like to see added.
- Submit a pull request - Fork the repo, add your resource to the
assets/directory, update thisREADME.mdwith the new resource, and open a PR. We'll review and merge it.
