A modified, cross-platform port of Valve's Source game engine (based on the 2017/2018 leaked codebase), extended to run on Android, macOS, FreeBSD, Windows, and Linux including ARM and 64-bit builds. It adds modern toolchain support, PBR, touch input, and fixes many bugs, and is explicitly not for commercial use.

Use cases

  • build a game on the source engine
  • port source engine games to android
  • run half-life 2 on linux or arm devices
  • compile source engine with modern toolchains
  • play source engine maps without steam
  • experiment with pbr rendering in source engine

When to choose

  • you want to build or mod games using the Source engine on modern platforms including Android or ARM
  • you need a 64-bit, modern-toolchain-compatible Source engine build
  • you want Source engine features like PBR or touch input without Steam dependencies

When to avoid

  • any commercial project - the leaked codebase forbids commercial use
  • you need a fully supported, officially licensed engine
  • you need a modern engine with active vendor support rather than a community patch effort
