Debian Packages that Need Lovin'
I see freepats there, I actually don't use that package, but I did a lot of work on their wiki especially in their free software programs section. In fact I am going to add another one I just heard about last week called Mixxx.

Show HN: UPiano, a Piano in Your Terminal
Hello HN!
This is a Python app I've built for fun, while learning the Textual library, it's a piano/synthesizer app that you can play with the keyboard + mouse.
You can see a demo video of it here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0VXit110PcA
You need to install FluidSynth before using it: https://www.fluidsynth.org/
It uses the Python bindings pyFluidSynth library: https://github.com/nwhitehead/pyfluidsynth

Best resources to integrate instrument sounds into a game?
There’s a ton of free synths / sound engines out there. I would start by seeing if you can integrate one of those. FluidSynth (https://www.fluidsynth.org/) is one of the more popular ones. It supports audio samples in the SoundFont format, and there’s a ton of free SoundFont sample banks out there you can find—you can find a bunch of different recommended sample banks, and my personal choice is GeneralUser GS. “GS” is a Roland extension to GM that includes additional instruments and percussion kits.
