You seem very knowledgeable I humbly request you offer to help those groups: PostmarketOS, Linux Mint, etc to create a group that focuses on getting partnerships in the way you suggested (Giving them the say explanation you gave me). You can do some and everyone else can do some too. Doesn’t have to take up a lot of your time and would help in every way literally. Can develop pipeline for volunteers so you don’t have to eventually either

That makes a lot of sense. So really we would need to make a database of local e-shops and then partner up to have phones sold. That is a genius plan to get into the public eye

No worries, great points you listed and definitely good angles on how to tackle it. Definitely will need a wide range of solutions done in tandem and those are definitely up there as well

Can’t wait to see the day when every game, or as close to 100% as possible, are made for Linux Native and Linux Compatible. We are getting there day by day

Looking forward to them building out on Pop OS and hoping they do these:

• Apps in Folders and Folders in Folders and Folders in Folders in Folders for App Launcher (For better app organization)
• Having different task bars for each workspace pinned and saved to save different workflows
• A simple quick way to add Icons to Executable Apps instead of manually finding each to add them. Maybe an app to make executables integrated right away and to simply put Icon on it by picking an icon

Hey I don’t know a whole lot about it but it seems kinda interesting

All I know is that whoever partners up with PostmarketOS, Mobian, and Ubuntu Touch will win big

Add Nokia, Brax, and other smaller phone companies that actually value privacy, open-source, repairability, linux, and consumer-friendly then we got a deal

Awesome glad to be on board of the team. To be upfront I will need to upskill in certain ways to be fully helpful for a fighting game project just so you know and so I don’t hold us back at all

No worries I fully get that I’m trying to get some kind of Software Engineer work currently, getting ready for next semester of college, integrate with my city to get things done, and trying to just manage with how nuts everything is

Repository looks good though overtime if you can point me where to learn I can do the same to help foot the bill for LFS server if more than one is needed later on for development

Oh I just thought of the most meta move. Tux can bite as an attack or maybe as the ultimate

Mind if I join in? Are you both still working on the project?

Please promote it at least once to get some more initial support. If you didn’t make this post I wouldn’t have found you

I actually love these suggestions if I can work on the project I’ll see if those can get added in. Maybe he can be a floating eyeball announcer

Wanted to come back to this to tell you I’m willing to assist in creating it. I was actually planning to have that be my next project after Fallout and Elder Scrolls open source RTS projects but would be up for brainstorming and collaboration to get your project made too

For storyline if you want one it could be a couple original proprietary villains use some kind of magic to buy the FOSS Mascots to make them do their bidding turning them evil. Very meta story if that was done but did you have a story in mind already?

Also, for art/animation/fighting/story direction what games are you gravitating to for those inspirations?

For fighting moves it can be things related to what their software/hardware does. Krita will have drawing attack moves, Konqi can fistfight and summon their siblings to assist in battle, Tux uses ice in some way since they are a penguin and because of the Linux origin story. GNU pulls out an old computer then starts going ham with it. As examples and spitballing.

I am not good at balancing yet either but we can definitely look for a dev good at balancing fighting games or learn to do it. Do you have a codeberg repository already setup?

What someone else recommended also was to make it enough to give people a rough idea of what they would get and if anyone is interested then they will join in. Then build it out more and more people will come your way eventually

Would you be up for collaborating?
