Making UFOAI a Portable App

UFOAI is a great game and could easily be placed on a usb thumb drive. I have tested it already and it works great in winxp and winvista. I am doing a little research on
www.portableapps.com
and see if I can learn how to make the game a true portable app that does not leave any information behind on a guest machine. It would be cool to have a linux distro. on a usb thumb drive with UFOAI that saves all game info. so you can boot via usb and start playing with full cpu and graphics focused on the game play. If anyone has created a portable app and would like to give me a hand in figuring this out let me know.

I think UFO:AI is included on a self-contained Linux games DVD that you can boot and play from out of the box. I forgot where I saw it though, give me a hand here, people.

I have downloaded the DVD but not all computers have DVD players but majority of computers have usb capabilities. This does give me a starting point for the usb linux with UFOAI. I am going to start just on making it a portable app that works on xp and vista first.
