Greetings fellow GOGers!

We need your help to bring on GOG the upcoming game Selaco, it's DRM-free and powered by GZDoom. To assist with that please:
1). Write / post something to keep this thread alive and seen for the others.
Example: "This game is DRM-free already, it should be available on GOG"

2). Vote in Wishlist (created by bilocation) so GOG Curation Team can see current demand

Videos for the game here (music track included) - check the destructible environment and voxel chairs.

Original thread for Selaco (created by AB2012)
https://www.gog.com/forum/general/selaco_upcoming_gzdoom_engine_powered_game

Wesley de Waart, the indie developer, decided to put the game here on GOG however after 2 weeks since the game submission form there was no reply. This is clearly some kind of misunderstanding since we got ourselves fantastic Hedon game which is also based on GZDoom and self-published by Zan, an indie developer. There are many other great retro FPS games available on GOG among other things.

Please note that game currently confirmed to support x64 Windows (Vista or later) / x64 Linux (Ubuntu 18.04, Mint 19, Debian 10).

Latest update:
I sent a ticket to Technical Support and PMed GOG moderators to assist me with Selaco game approval by GOG Curation Team. Unfortunately they can't help with this and I was informed that they have sent my appeal to them however there will be no feedback. Meaning there is no way for an ordinary person to know what went wrong with Selaco submission form. Was it ignored, rejected, forgotten, something else? Who knows. That does not mean that we should take current situation as it is and do nothing, we can manage GOG to notice Selaco game. And Wesley de Waart might even send another request to GOG later on.

This question / problem has been solved by Wesley_de_Waartimage
To quote what I said on the original thread:

"Message to the GoG intern they ordered to go through this thread:
Yes, we'd love to see this game on GoG. The game is DRM-free, done in a FOSS engine, coming to multiple OS-es.

The audience is here, we're just waiting for it's release, and hopefully it releases on GoG!"

and yeah. As the currently leading no-DRM platform, it'd be a great thing to see this game be available on GoG!
Got my vote. Looks interesting.
Put my vote in, good luck.
If I could vote twice, I would... GOG, can't you see the beacons are lit? Selaco calls for admission!
I'll be honest, I expected some low-effort "because retro" crap. But I stand corrected, this actually looks pretty good. Voted.

Thanks guys.

Lets hope they reconsider(?) and allow us to put the game on there! <3

Wesley_de_Waart: Thanks guys.

For what it's worth, voted in favor ^^

It's more likely a matter of still being under the radar, hopefully it will likely be accepted soon!
The game looks good, so I presume it'll be accepted. I don't know what's the standard wait time needed to accept the game after the submission is made, but two weeks isn't a long waiting time. Anyway I've voted on the game. :)
This silence on GOGs part scares and confuses us. I vote when I'm confused! Also punch wall. Wraaagh!

Maybe someone that knows some gog mods here can let them know about this and then they can pass the message to the Gog staff.

This is also not nearly the only occasion. Swedrami made a thread a couple of days ago where there are a lot more examples besides Selaco:

Yes, that is the main goal, to let GOG know about this situation. I notified a few GOG mods already and wrote a ticket to tech. support.
If you and others know some GOG mods please kindly ask them to look into it.

And it even mentions Selaco game, awkward.

I get the sense things slip through the cracks more than GOG will admit. Besides voting of course, I'd suggest messaging Support if you're especially enthused over this title (or angry about its rejection) and you'd likely buy the game here.

Also, post about it on the r/gog subreddit.

If I know the GOG mods they'll ban someone, close the thread and remove the game's name from the thread's title just to be safe :D
