Purism, the famous creator of the Librem 5 smartphone So well known among the open source community, high quality designs, that guarantee your privacy and with freedom as a flag, now it seems that they want to go a little further and have announced a new collaboration with GDQuest. For those who do not know, it is an indie video game design company or studio, which will now be a partner of Purism.
The objective of this collaboration with GDQuest It is clear, they want to teach you how to create video games that can be played in the next Purism smartphones, the Librem 5. The founder of GDQuest, Nathan Lovato, will be producing several video tutorials exclusively for Purism and thus demonstrate how to create video games for GNU systems / Linux properly and that can be published under the well-known PureOS Store apps that will be present on these devices and was recently announced by Purism ...
The expert Lovato and these video tutorials will contribute very much to mix freedom and indie games together to delight gamers who have these devices, and thus provide the necessary instructions to make high-quality and adaptive titles using the Godot Engine graphics engine, a free game engine that we already talked about on other occasions in this blog. Without a doubt something very interesting for developers, but in the end it will also affect end users.
By the way, the Godot Engine, as you already know, allows you to design games 2D and also 3D, so the flexibility and diversity of titles that can come out of here can be the most varied. Also add that the App store we have talked about will be present on both mobile platforms and PCs, so that the apps can be used in both ecosystems. And I end by remembering that Librem 5 should be released in April 2019, I hope so ...
