Quoting: NodForgetting about the games for a moment, lets take a second to reflect how great it is that the community is funding Ryan to work on useful stuff that benefits us all (Linux gamers) directly. A good example is the fact Ryan has been able to work on https://icculus.org/physfs/ [External Link] full time for the last month or so because of patreon funders.

I got more interested in the patreon model a few weeks back when I read these articles [1 [External Link]] [2 [External Link]]. Consequently I went looking for people I though worth funding, heres what I found:

Open Source Gaming:

* https://www.patreon.com/icculus [External Link]
* https://www.patreon.com/flibitijibibo [External Link]
* https://www.patreon.com/Cheeseness [External Link]
* https://www.patreon.com/liamdawe [External Link]
* https://www.patreon.com/openfl [External Link]
* https://www.patreon.com/kozec [External Link]

Open Source

* https://www.patreon.com/joeyh [External Link]

I'm sure I missed some, if you know of other interesting people or projects in the open source gaming space please post them in the comments.
godot? blender?
and its not software but the copyleft pepper and carrot comic, made with open source software. (fund an case of sucess sometimes is better than the product itself)

"Another fighting game would be great. He could either port Street Fighter 5 (which was supposed to come out for Linux a long time ago) or Guilty Gear Xrd Rev2 (works quite well with Wine and uses OpenGL so it shouldn't be too hard) or KOF XIV which uses SDL already. "
sdl?
input is not a big deal, it will save a few bytes during the porting process only

Quoting: Asuhaha I've played enough goat simulator that I will pick this up too when linux client goes official.
no, its not related, this game came before goat simulator, its not another comedy sandbox with poor physics to make it funnier (or due to lazy devs) and unfixed bugs to make it funnier.

its a real: wolf simulator.
