there are several developers that have bundled wine as an AppImage, my favourite one is this , about GZDoom I've just downloaded the tar package and it seems to be an Electron based app, so it should not difficult to bundle it (see my Spotify for example), and supermariowar should be easier too.

The "Open.." button in Openshot/Avidemux/VLC/QT-based apps doesn't work
3 projects | /r/flatpak | 6 Jun 2022

The other poster asked you to check so the file chooser window, the window that asks you what file to open which didn't appear for you when you pressed the "Open..." button, isn't just appearing behind the window of the program. This is in order to see if your issue is an already existing one or whether it's a potentially new one. Literally the same troubleshooting procedure you've asked people to do yourself in your own repositories: https://github.com/ivan-hc/VLC-AppImage/issues/1 https://github.com/ivan-hc/GIMP-AppImage/issues/1
Anyone experiencing with GitHub actions? I'm trying to create a workflow for AppImage packages built with pkg2appimage and appimagetool
