Flatpak version - OK to submit to Flathub for review?

[gjpin]

Hello!

First of all I'd like to show my great appreciation for the itch project! I'm also a big Flatpak fan and would like to see itch available on Flathub.

I've worked on an initial version of the Flatpak version of the itch app that can be found at: https://github.com/gjpin/itch-flatpak. It uses the newly released org.winehq.Wine as the base and downloads the Linux client directly from broth, so Wine is working out of the box.

I've tested a few Windows and Linux games with success.

I'd like to know if I can initiate the submission to Flathub for review or if the itch team is interested in taking the lead. Either way, I'm just looking to help and would like to see it published.

Thanks,

Have any steps from @leafo been made to you, @gjpin in relation to this issue yet?

This is pretty cool, I hope upstream approves this Flatpak build and its publication on Flathub.

Can this be given any consideration whatsoever by the developers?

[heidiwenger]

Yes, what seems to be the problem if there is any? This has been ready to go for a good while now? And if not, why no communication? These are essential things in the means of all Linux adoption, too.

i tried this flatpak. but c++ 2015 failed to install automatically. So, the game didn't run. I hope officials give it a try.
