Hello🙂
My name is MadShmupper and I'm part of a group of developers working on porting games to handheld Linux devices. Our project is named PortMaster(https://portmaster.games/) and we have an active Discord server in which you are very welcome to come check out any time.https://discord.gg/JxYBp9HTAY
It would be fantastic if you could grant us permission to include your awesome game, 'Beowulf Classic', within a ready to run port on PortMaster. May we distribute the game in question, please? I'll also note here that I've also left a request for dirty cop host permission, on its own page. Both games would undoubtedly be a most excellent addition to these handheld devices. Especially in a "ready to run" format.
You and anyone else responsible for this game will of course be properly thanked, noted, and linked accordingly. PortMaster will be responsible for the ports maintenance should any be needed. However, as the creator, you are welcome to come check us out and have any say you'd like involving said port.
Please note that we do not take or accept monetary profit for any port. Our primary goal is to introduce more games to our beloved PortMaster community and to showcase these excellent game creations by excellent devs such as yourself.
I'll close this by thanking you on behalf of myself, and the others at PortMaster, for any consideration that you may lend towards my request!
THANK YOU SO MUCH🎩
