Typically "homebrew" is any sort of software that is made "at home" as a hobby by one or two guys and is a term used to differentiate from those games that are made by comprehensive teams of coders, musicians and designers with the backing of a studio or publisher. Now-a-days people tend to use the term "indie" more, though. In this day and age, basically every piece of software coded for the Amiga fits the definition of "homebrew". Note that the term "homebrew" does not necessarily equate to "freeware", some "homebrew" games are payware.

5 homebrew / coverware / freeware games I enjoy playing, here we go :
Though I must say, I didn't play Alien Fish Finger extensively. Drip is a late discovery of mine, so I guess I should be grateful to the regulars who posted about it a few years ago. |

homebrew imho is a console/locked down systems version of what we have always known as PD.
