  • I wouldn’t entrust such an important display to some hacky solution a bunch of Lemmy users can come up with. Set up a normal kiosk environment and do your work on a second machine. You can ssh or even Sunshine/Moonlight into the gaming machine if you have to do something there.

    But you don’t want something a potential customer does on the game to crash your work or vice versa. Or even worse something goes wrong and the customers can suddenly see your work on their screen. Best to separate those things as much as possible.
















  • Damn, your definition of old-school is very different from mine.

    My go-to free old-school shooter is Freedoom. Completely free assets for the open source Doom engine form a completely free and open source game. They are currently working on giving Quake the same treatment.

    Slightly newer are the Unreal games which can be downloaded for free from https://oldunreal.com/ with the blessings of Epic. I think technically you would also be allowed to get UT3 but nobody wants that.
