I was just about to open the exact same request!

However, the game's build recipe is based on Docker which makes the build rather complicated on/with Nix (the inputs are mutable and impure - you never know what docker container you're going to end up with).

I don't know how to approach this in Nix - or whether there even is a way to expose Docker daemon to the build environment...
