Usage

Game color is a template for accessing unique, predefined colors for games and engine branches documented on the Valve Developer Community, based on feature addition templates. This template returns a hexadecimal color value directly and is intended to be used inside of wiki formatting.

Tip:Every game icon template (such as {{hl2}}, see Category: Game icons) can return its game color using {{hl2|col}} → #E6AC39. This approach is what this template uses. Use that directly wherever possible.

Parameters

• {{{1}}} – The full name or abbreviation of a game. If Template:name exists, {{game color|name}} returns {{name|col}}, otherwise {{{default|#add8e6}}}. Other legal values are: todo, in, only, also, since, removed, not.
• {{{default|#add8e6}}} – The fallback return value if {{{1}}} is invalid.
