    I have been working on the https://github.com/dotnet/dotnet-console-games, which is a bunch of simple, open-source games written in C# with the goal of providing educational examples to new software developers. There are more than 40 games in the repository, and I plan on continuing to make more in the future, and contributions are very welcome. I also ported the games to the web using C#'s blazor webassembly so you can play the games right in the browser: https://dotnet.github.io/dotnet-console-games/.

    I have gotten a lot of positive feedback from the C# community, but I wanted to share the repository here as I feel it could be helpful to other communities too. Even if you are not interested in C#, each of the games could be easily coded in other languages too. So, if you know someone who is learning to code and is looking for fun beginner-level coding projects maybe encourage them to give the repository a look.

    Thanks. :)

    However if you don't want to use releases you can just use a dedicated branch that is not your source code branch. For example, in the dotnet-console-games repository, the source code is in the "main" branch and there is another branch called "binaries" that stores the compilation output. https://github.com/dotnet/dotnet-console-games. There is an action in github that automatically builds the code from the "main" branch and pushes the output to the "binaries" branch. That action is here: https://github.com/dotnet/dotnet-console-games/blob/main/.github/workflows/Binaries%20Deploy.yml
