#408 [Talk-25] Game Development with Fedora
Closed: Talk Scheduled 2 years ago by isagordillo. Opened 2 years ago by dulsi.

What is your proposal?
The talk would mention the various tools for developing games on Fedora. Specifically I plan on talking about Godot, Love, and some libraries like SDL2 and Gamerzilla. It would include some information about creating a build for Linux.
(Another possible idea I had was to create a game in Godot as the whole session. That would need to be prerecorded and possibly cut down. Maybe I'll try that next year.)

Who in addition to the speaker needs to be in the virtual room for this to succeed?
People interested in learning about game development.

List each person by their name and FAS ID, as shown below:

Dennis Payne (dulsi)

25 minute Talk

Who are you?

Name: Dennis Payne
FAS ID: dulsi
IRC Nick, if not FAS ID:
Timezone: EDT
Availability for August 4-6th: Evening of 4th and 5th. All day on the 6th.


This seems awesome but I'm not sure it fits the Fedora contributor audience (that is, Fedora-working-on-Fedora).

However, it kind of gives me an idea... maybe we should try to put together a mini-event specifically for Fedora gaming.

Thank you for your submission and congratulations! Your proposed session has been accepted for Nest with Fedora.

A couple notes:
- Based on @mattdm previous comment, it would be great if you could rework the talk a little bit to fit the Fedora contributor audience.
- See also: https://discussion.fedoraproject.org/t/throwing-out-an-idea-a-gaming-with-fedora-linux-mini-event/40685

As a reminder, the dates for this years virtual event is August 4th, 5th, & 6th. I will follow up shortly with a draft schedule for you to review and confirm the date/time for your session.

How about I modify it to talk more about finding open source games and problems you might encounter trying to run them. For Godot anything before 3.x, I have not been able to get running and a developer I talked with felt the changes needed to upgrade a 2.x project made it not worth the effort. It is unclear how Godot 4.x will be with that. Mention that Pigeon Ascent is a Godot game on Fedora which can be use as an example for packaging other games. For Love anything written for 0.10.x will need some minor cleanup to run with 11.x. There are some love games like mrrescue that could be used as packaging examples.
