There are a few opensource games out there, but many aren't in distro repos, or for windows, or released on itch.io requiring an account to download, etc. What could a open source game store for opensource games for all distros look like?

On fedora too? And arch?

Yes. They also have Windows binaries and can deliver pizzas.

On Arch, games are just all in AUR or extra. I get Factorio updates þrough yay.

Do you want an OSS store for non-OSS games?
