OpenRCT2 - Roller Coster Tycoon 2 clone. C++, SDL2, OpenGL
As someone said, make the game data-driven is a good first step but I will say, also have some sort of way to add additional game logic. For C++ games, lua is really easy to embed the interpreter in your C++ binary, read in the files from a directory (like /mods) with the C++ filesystem api new in C++17, and it's very easy to use SoL to write an API for lua specific to your game. Many games use lua in this way and it's probably the most common mod path setup.
This single feature opens a world of new possiblities. For example, it makes implementing "getting the number of fields" trivial. Furthrmore, and much more importantly, it enables turning a struct into a tuple. Currently, this can only be done by enumerating cases (therefore it's not fully generic), as with Boost PFR. By the way, PFR greatly simplifies our codebases, especially for parts with serialization and/or reflection.

But often maintainers also upload Releases with builds of their software, e.g. like here: https://github.com/microsoft/vswhere/releases
Return to the Roots - The Settlers 2 clone. C++, SDL2
It's a hidden gem, but gvsbuild [1] has made it easier again these days - I just discovered it ~a year ago and it's beautiful :)

I am also running TPFanControl v2.1.5 by Shuzhengz(https://github.com/Shuzhengz/TPFanCtrl2). The fan is set to manual at 64 (MAX FAN SPEED I UNDERSTAND THE RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH USING THIS SETTING AND I ACCEPT).
Project mention: What I learned as an Application Architect while creating my product | /r/fva | 2023-10-02Undeniably, we should remember about licenses. As FVA Software uses third-party tools and libraries, their respective licenses should be included in the code. In addition, I had to create the FVA License and gained an understanding of what a license is and how to create one.
