The spawned process exits almost immediately
The problem is that some games start without issues and stay alive and others exit with exit code 1 immediately. For example, Teeworlds 0.7.5 ( teeworlds.com ) works just fine but Battle for Wesnoth 1.16.6 ( wesnoth.itch.io/battle-for-wesnoth ) doesn't.

Richard Stallman – “The state of the Free Software movement” – April 13, 2022
Richard Stallman has a policy of putting his non-engineering works under a non-libre license (CC-BY-ND 3.0) [0] [1], so maybe he wouldn't have a problem with this non-libre game as the underlying code is libre, just not the assets.
In my opinion, this is one of the problems with Stallman's "moral authority" approach to the FSF. I would very much like to hear about these cases where a game's source is libre licensed but not it's content and see what Stallman actually has to say about it.
Not for nothing, but there are many network/online games that have both source and content libre licensed. Here are a few:
* Teeworlds - https://www.teeworlds.com/
* Minetest - https://www.minetest.net/
* Battle for Wesnoth - https://github.com/wesnoth/wesnoth
I'm sure there are many others of note but those are just the few that I have at least some passing familiarity with.

Almost Always Unsigned
The patch is completely bogus:
https://github.com/teeworlds/teeworlds/commit/4d529dcd2d0102...
Here it tries to avoid overflow by assigning the result of 32 bit arithmetic to a 64 bit type. That's a common mistake.

Soldat is a unique 2D (side-view) multiplayer action game
I saw mention of Pascal, so I had to take a quick peek:
https://github.com/Soldat/soldat/blob/develop/server/ServerC...
The last time I used Pascal was in the late 1980s on a VAX/VMS system. Very fond memories!
The developer hosts the game on a Polish domain (https://soldat.pl/), and even has a FAQ entry regarding the name: https://soldat.pl/en/page/faq
Q: What does "Soldat" mean!?
A: "Soldat" or "Soldaat" means "soldier" in the following languages: german, dutch, norwegian, swedish, danish, french, slovenian, afrikaans, russian, catalan and romanian.
