I love the premise of the game. I mean ultimately what I think we need is a fighter between two Linux users, each representing their own operating system. Each OS can have its own power ups. Maybe that can be v2 :) good stuff!
"each representing their own operating system." = yes, and also DE/WM. "Each OS can have its own power ups." = Yes, via Linux packages in the game along with distro specific perks.
Give the beta a try. Hope that's what you had in mind. <3
