With the Librem 5 and PinePhone being out in the wild, am wondering about the possibility for Unvanquished to be packaged and scaled to run well on those phones.
Minimum Needs:
-
Scale UI for smaller screens and resolution (both phones are 720p)
-
Scale graphic settings to run on their older mobile GPUs
-
Runs at 30 fps
-
Gamepad Support
-
Packaging for those devices (whether general aarch64 package or specific one for each phone)
Wants:
-
Run consistently at 60 fps (more possible with the Librem 5's bigger GPU and faster RAM)
-
Touch screen input to play the game
Now that Linux phones are here, the prospect of free software Linux gaming on them sounds amazing. Plus if using Mobile Linux as a base, then can scale up for more powerful ARM devices like Pinebook Pro. But yeah, just a few things I've thought of. Curious to see what others think below.
