While it's not perfect, Planetary Annihilation is still really quite fun to play. It's currently in the Killer Bundle 3 from Bundle Stars for cheap.

There's also Merchants of Kaidan and The Original Strife: Veteran Edition that have Linux support in this bundle.

For £3.99 even with those 3 games it's a killer bundle, hope to see lots more of you playing Planetary Annihilation.

Thank you Liam for the heads-up!! I got the bundle immediately. I was more interested in Merchants of Kaidan to tell the truth. :P
Great tip!

Also new PTE (test version) finally introduced "Play From Here" button for ChronoCam. So now it's not only possible to save/load, but also use time warp feature to reset game state to any point in timeline.

I buy it in full price long time ago but on my Radeon GPU game PA works only with -softwareui mode... Can any tell me if this is fixed now? I don't play it for long time.

Good, but I bought the bundle while I was using the windows partition. Since are keys bought outside the steam store I guess that it doesn't matter (they will still count as windows keys no matter if I was using linux or not))

Quoting: DamonLinuxPLCan any tell me if this is fixed now?
Coherent UI isn't really stable without --software-ui on any drivers. There is some chance that situation will improve once they change to newer version of Chromium (40 instead of 28), but problem with open source drivers need to be fixed by middleware developers.

Except you use it in DRM-free way (without a loggin-in) developers have their own statistics to determine OS usage as PA depend on their network service.

I bought this game full price more than a year ago if I remember correctly. And now, one year after, the game is still very buggy on Linux and you'll be lucky if you can finish a game session without it hanging in the middle of the match.
