I'd love to partner with Steam (or:Origin) on something like this.

I actually got unofficial approval to push my League of Legends linux image to the hub, which is an absolutely PITA to get installed right. I may do that; I don't play enough to maintain it.



Could you try reaching out to GoG.com as well? They have been pushing Linux gaming lately, but I have run into uneven support for their titles. It seems that if the dev gives them a tarball, thats all they use, while other titles they package. I have been having a tough time getting Shadowrun Returns up and running and it would be awesome to just grab the image.

What do you mean by get approval? Isn't LoL F2P? Did you have to get approval from the creator or Docker?

Great idea. I will definitely reach out.

Just because it's F2P doesn't mean I have a license to distribute it.

Docker is an open source project. So, in effect, all contributors (including me!) are creators of Docker :)


email me, johnv at valvesoftware.com, and we can discuss it


Will do!


there are already steam/csgo docker images.. what would a partnership change?


I didn't know that. Pretty cool.
