Linux Game manager

Installer and launcher for accessible to the blind games that run natively in Linux.

Dependencies

As the project grows, more dependencies will most likely be added. When LGM is launched, it will check to make sure it has the required dependencies for it to do the work of downloading and extracting the game. Note that because every distro has a different package manager, dependencies for games themselves will not be resolved. Please consult the game's documentation to find out what is needed for the game to run.

FAQ

Q: Why this project, can't everything just be dumped into Audiogame Manager?

The short answer is no. Audiogame-manager is built around using wine to play games. This means that most calls, including the launcher, killing the process, and in lots of cases the uninstaller are built around wine commands. In addition, the launch parser expects a wine path.

While exceptions could probably be added for some of the games, AGM is already at more than 2500 lines and will continue to grow as games are added. So, for the sake of developers, it is easier to focus on one thing, and hopefully do it well.
