here's a free idea: RAM shortage jam, where you have to make a game for a system with low RAM capacity. like maybe less than 128mb or something

edit: OOM jam is a much better name than what i came up with https://mastodon.gamedev.place/@aeva/116362518081235814

@eniko "oom jam" has a nice ring to it

@eniko To my mind, Luanti hits it just right, targeting low-spec hardware. Even an 8-year-old laptop with a weak Intel video chip will play it just fine. A #luanti server will run on a $5 US/mo VPS. #Voxelibre is the most fun #OpenSource game I've ever played, BTW.

Consider contributing to the already-existing Luanti community, instead of undertaking a new project that will likely take years to finish. They could use help with the most basic things, like cleaning up documentation, etc.

Consider advocating its inclusion into default #Linux installs, becoming the new Solitaire or Minesweeper.

@d1 @eniko since luanti is a game engine you can use it to create low spec voxel based games

@eowyn @eniko I wonder of there's a Roblox near-equivalent for #Luanti? (That one is very popular with the kids these days: #Roblox)

@d1, @eowyn, @eniko:

I'll say about my Rōblox Freedom Distribution project. I've been working on it for almost three years, but it's still rough around the edges.
