I’ve been slowly working on this at https://infinitemystery.app

cephalizationon RedwoodJS 1.0

https://github.com/redwoodjs/redwood/blob/main/README.md

The readme goes into details more in depth than I will, but as a dev raised on javascript and cloud tech, I like redwood for probably the same reasons that devs raised on ruby like ruby on rails. I get to keep using all the tech i'm comfortable with but the tooling is all preconfigured and the dev experience is smooth and optimized.

Alright that crossover game is amazing, such a great idea

cephalizationon Ubuntu 20.04 LTS (Focal Fossa)

I've been running the last "nightly" release or whatever it is of 20.04 since Apr 20 on the same specs you list (3900x instead of 3950x). No problems so far on my ultrawide 3440x1400 display or with the proprietary nvidia driver. Just choose the 'safe' graphics option on boot of the live usb.
