Hi!
This might be an unusual post. Certainly is my first time doing one like this. I'll cut straight to the point.
I want clean and polished FOSS games for the F-Droid repository.
Looking for developers who want to contribute to open source but also want to claim this kind of bounty.
It isn't much at all, but I have a $500 budget. I'm a college student with no more free time to do this myself. This is a goal I still want to see reached though.
The game(s) don't have to be over complex. Just enough to hit that mobile game itch. Maybe I don't know exactly what I want, but something is just missing from these F-Droid games.
If you even have a great mobile game idea, but needed money for assets or motivation.
All I need is a decent Godot developer. Whether you just want to help out the community, a high school student trying to find a gig, or both. Looking for anyone who can put some time into this.
REQUIREMENTS
- Godot Engine only
- AGPL Licensing
- Publish to FDroid under a group name
- Are okay with limited in-game advertisements (1. on certain games 2. if I find a decent ad system)
PAYMENT OPTIONS
- Monero
- Wire Transfer
- Wise International Transfer
- Check in Mail
- Zelle
- Other?
Send an email if you're interested, but I do want to have comments left here just for future reference.
Some questions to all F-Droid users here:
- What do you say on the current state of F-Droid games?
- What separates slop from a good mobile gaming experience?
- What games do you want to see on F-Droid?
My definition of a mobile game is quick and digestible. Something for an on-the-go and addicting experience.
Tell me your thoughts below. Am I overreaching? Am I underpaying? Should I just make this a game jam? I'm super sick right now so maybe my thoughts are clouded.
Unaware of a ad system that would be AGPL compatible. If the games are worth playing then someone would probably fork it, remove the ads, and upload the clone to FDroid.
That would be possible, yes. There might be a small threshold of in-game ads that most people could handle until they decide to fork it though. And of course a disable ads button.
