New game dropped on Flathub: meet ROTA!

https://flathub.org/apps/net.hhoney.rota

I was going to wait until we clean things up a bit more (I have a PR open to backfill release notes, maybe a nicer icon, verification), but I’m too obsessed to not share it immediately.

ROTA is completely open source, built with Godot, and released on Flathub (including for ARM!). And seriously, it’s SO GOOD. So much love and attention has been poured into it.

@sebulon sure, and Itch.io, and Google Play, and source code… but I'm excited for more quality games on Flathub. 😁

@cassidy

Whether it's ROTA, Fablemaker or, among the latest Flatpak, Superfluous Returnz, C-evo: New Horizons... they can all access the microphone by default. Wasn't there supposed to be a portal for that?

Even apps like Lada, which I don't see the point of having a microphone for that, have access to it 🤔

@gnomelibre @cassidy "microphone access" is secret code for "can play sound" because there is currently no way to let an app play sound without it having access to the pulseaudio socket.

@wjt

So they should be adapted to use PipeWire instead? I had read that it was designed to support sandboxing well…

@gnomelibre Currently that doesn't help in Flatpak land.

@flathub It would be great if your could share updates on Mastodon about all the new apps added to Flathub, similar to the information presented in your RSS feed: https://flathub.org/api/v2/feed/new. Thx

@cassidy Endless Sky, Mindustry, Shattered Pixel Dungeon, Warzone 2100…

I think if all the emulators and launchers were a separate category, it would be easier to see that there are so many excellent games on Flathub.

@greytheearthling yeah, a pet project I'd love to be able to tackle would be giving Flathub some love specifically from the Games angle. You can browse a bit at https://flathub.org/apps/category/Game/, but I think we could do a lot more interesting things here (or with any category page…).

This is a great game. I've been playing it on my Steam Deck and it plays beautifully.
