Uuu, that’s a nice take, I like that.
Too bad it might not be a joke in the future.
Guitar hero on Linux
Guitarch, btw.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frets_on_Fire
It’s been available since 2006, works very well
These days I’d recommend Clone Hero
Or yarg which I’ve found runs better on weaker hardware.
Damn, I remember installing it in the school’s computer and playing during classes while holding the keyboard just like in the game logo.
Yes, I was the weird kid.
make && make install
Done.
Only five missing dependencies, ten configuration mistakes and three compiler errors to go.
I just wish someone was making half decent 3rd party hardware to use with Clone Hero thats NOT over $60.

I love this!
30$ if you assemble it yourself. 60$ if you don’t.
Not nearly text-based enough
Would this be one of those
chmod ./*.shcommands?
Nope.
./configure make guitar
Pretty sure the command for this was
sudo rm -rf
This is far too linear, where are my choices? There must be a fork of this body that is full of switches and got an included amplifier.
Gaming on linux is not that bad today. Look at valve’s success with the steamdeck. All past and present issues are because developers were aiming to a different platform, with proprietary tooling.
In meme terms, is like Fender made the guitars for people with different hands. You can’t play, but it’s their fault.
Not anymore… This was true in 2010 guys. :)
I’ve played Clone Hero on Linux, works great
One of those rare games with an actually good native Linux version
The hilarity here is that iirc this first showed up on !linuxsucks@lemmy.world , and gained a 3rd of the popularity. At least we see and understand what it is like if you go the Gentoo route.
I didn’t know linux sucks was a thing 💀
Mostly people that can’t or won’t setup anything more complicated than a PS1
How about easy to use distros 🤨
Nah I use LFS, I wanna grow the tree and chop the wood too
I don’t even play but I’d love to assemble a guitar.
I do play and I absolutely guarantee any guitar I would try assemble would play so so badly. Setting up a guitar is an exercise in precision engineering with wood.
an exercise in precision engineering with wood
With wood, an hilariously imprecise material (for anyone who doesn’t know). It refuses precision on principle first, and then just on occasion, at every opportunity later.
That delicious (infuriating) imprecision is probably why it can sound so frickin great, though, so…
Same ! This looks so satisfying !! Hope they have proper manual though… Not an outsourced Polish only image based manual… Uhhhg !
Gotta check the documentation
These kits do come with step by step manuals, but one of the reasons to get one in the first place is to modify it. It makes sense to figure out what each part does, instead of following a manual.
