Project is seemingly dead with the latest commit being from 2018.

Two major games with code on github I can think of are Amnesia: The Dark Descent (1) and Celeste (2)

Also mindustry (1) which is a factorio-like game with tower defense elements. Great game and still in active development.

Mindustry is such a great game. I bought it for like $4 when it was on sale on steam, and played it for >200hrs.

Can definitely recommend, it beeing open source is really just the cherry on top.

Also missing Cortex Command[0] which got open sourced not so long ago[1].

Celeste is really great! But the github repo only contains some class files from the game, 'for inspiration'. So it is just a small sample. Also there is no artwork. I would not call that 'a game hosted on GitHub'
