Heroic Games Launcher

Description

In this talk I will showcase new advancements and challanges in Heroic Games Launcher and projects that surround it, as well as future plans and ideas on how we can make gaming on Linux even more pleasant for non-Steam games.

This includes a sneak peak of new open source replacement for EA App - Maxima, a standalone client developed together with ArmchairDevelopers responsible for Battlefront II mods and custom servers manager Kyber.

We'll dive into comet, a helper application that enables multiplayer and social features for supported GOG games.
