ENIGMA Development Environment

So it turned out that developing (GPU accelerated) games for Ubuntu Touch is a real nightmare. The combination of ARM architecture and MIR display server makes it nearly impossible to develop a game that runs at decent speed since XMIR doesn't support GPU acceleration.
The only engine that supports both MIR and ARM is SDL2 in version <= 2.0.8 (they removed MIR support in 2.0.9 lately)
I wonder if it will be possible to use the SDL backand of Enigma to create games in RGM when it is out in the wild.
A small peek at the Github repo showed that libsdl2-dev gets installed. Maybe it works when I specify a specific version in this line

Hello Warrenaterz, welcome to the forum. 

As hpg678 already mentioned Lateral Game Maker (LGM) will be replaced by Radial Game Maker (RGM). According to the developers, the beta will probably arrive some time after Christmas.
Concerning the dark theme, you can set a different theme in the setting of LGM. It is also possible to install a custom theme.
Here are a few:

I recently installed Ubuntu Touch on my Smartphone. Looking through the OpenStore I only found 133 games in total and thought about developing a game myself. Unfortunately there aren't any game engines out there that can export to ARM Linux (except HTML5 games which run pretty slow). Since I have full access to the underlying Linux I wonder if it would be possible to run Enigma on the phone and use the CLI to compile a game that I develop on the desktop.
I have no knowledge about building C++ applications or mobile GPUs so please bear with me if this is completely illusional. 
(Did a quick test with the install.py script but it had issues with the java part)

 
I can only second this. Contributing to an open source project feels very rewarding.
I'm currently busy with a mobile game, that's why I haven't been around for a while but I can't wait to check out all the new features I saw on Github.

Yeah TKG is right again, and the WINE developers probably saw very little of that profit/growth/gain.

This may get a little off topic but I'm actually quite surprised that Crossover is seen as a negative example of what could happen to an open source project if it gets used by a company.
As far as i know CodeWeavers is one of the biggest contributors to WINE and even employs developers to work on WINE and push features upstream.
In the Linux gaming community this relationship is seen as a success story of how open source development can get funded. I guess WINE even has a way larger user base than Crossover.
Or maybe there was a conflict at the beginning that I'm not aware of.

Now I'm getting even more excited about RadialGM and the new "Secret Feature".
What you wrote sounds really interesting. 

I am not exactly sure I understand the issue here though. You really do not need to concern yourself with the licensing of the engine, because we will work out an exception, the only reason we haven't yet is out of fear of what happened to the WINE project basically.

I'm not concerned about the license of the engine. In a different thread it has already been made clear that none of the Enigma developers intends to sue Enigma users for not publishing the source.
What I'm talking about is the license of proprietary assets that can be bought in stores like from Scierra.com. Those licenses usually forbid to sub license the assets or distribute altered copies of the assets under a different license.
I am not a lawyer but as I see it the customers of my game that uses 3rd party assets might claim that bundling these together with a GPL engine runtime inside the same executable file puts them under GPL too. So if they ask for the sound and image files I couldn't give them away without breaking the license from the asset creator.
When the assets are not bundled within the executable one would be able to put the corresponding license file into the same folder as the images, sounds etc.
Furthermore If someone really could force me to release the source of the game I could simply exclude the assets as they have a different license. The source of a game without the images, sounds, music and videos is pretty useless so one could prevent others to just publish your game elsewhere for free since recreating the assets is a lot of work.
But with your exception to the GPL license in the pipe this will hopefully not be an issue anymore.

BTW: What happened to the WINE project?

Thank you for the links TKG.
The descriptions of the "*_replace" functions state that "You can not use one from the resource tree as you cannot replace built-in assets.". So in other words when using those functions I wouldn't be able to use the object and room editor and to do everything via code since the assets created within the IDE are forbidden then.
I wonder if Enigma works the same way as GM here.

EDIT:
I made a small test project and it looks like Enigma indeed supports replacing sprites created within the IDE (haven't tested other assets jet). When I call sprite_replace from within the create event of the object the sprite gets replaced by the one from the given path.
Now I would need to find a way to get rid of all the sprites and sound files at once right before the game is getting compiled.
(or to be more precise - replace them with a dummy image since a sprite without an image causes a compilation error)

Cool
This reminds me that I still have an unfinished Sokoban clone on my hard drive.
