Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

For anyone confused by the HDL, it's the authors custom language: https://github.com/sylefeb/Silice/tree/master
It provides a compiler to Verilog that then can be fed to traditional design flows.

How to contribute to open source?
I'm an intern at a french IT lab and my boss is working on an open-source FPGA language, you might want to check it out https://github.com/sylefeb/Silice .

Please Help Me Identify a Game
Depending on where you live, it was either called "Out Of This World" or "Another World". It's a cool game, because the engine was written as a kind of "virtual machine" that interprets game bytecode. And the interpreter itself was pretty small, and easy to port to new platforms, so although the game started on the Amiga and Atari ST, it got a ton of ports over the years (literally a couple dozen systems). There are even open source versions of the game engine.
