Hi all,

As a bit of a change of pace from packaging, I was wondering if anyone
from the Games Team is interested in having a WAN party during
MiniDebCamp next week?

Image Gallery: https://kutt.it/CLiMC4
Register your interest at https://framadate.org/mdco2-wanparty-timezone
Choose the game at https://framadate.org/mdco2-wanparty-game

I was thinking most of those games I could self-host the server part for
you to connect to and maybe combine it with Mumble or Jitsi. Any other
ideas for making it feel more like a LAN party, please let me know.
