Is there a neat way to turn digital games into physical games? (leminal.space)

You know how games use to come on a dvd or a big brick called a cartridge... Can i do something like that but in modern day. I have a bunch of blank dvd and cds collecting dust and linux os's but could i put game son them on installers and give them some cool art? Is there a better way to do this? This would also be for personal use cases.

Im just not sure how well save files would be handled, or if this is worth doing.

Steam's backup option is still there, and it can break the game files up into CD or DVD sized chunks for this exact purpose.

You do need to have Steam installed for the discs to work later.
