Shipwreck is a top down adventure game in which you must travel the land, explore dungeons, and defeat monsters to earn safe passage off the island on which you are stranded. It's a nice little game and has had a price-drop as well as a Desura release.

I tested it and it works perfectly well and I am really surprised they dropped the price to make it that cheap. The game resembles some early Zelda games from Nintendo which is a good thing as it's very crisp.

The game was ported to Linux by well known porter Ethan Lee's FNA project, so you know it's a good quality port.

It's now £0.99 which is increadibly cheap! You can grab it on Desura using the Desura widget or from the Humble Store using the that widget. Article taken from GamingOnLinux.com.

Love this game! Many folks told it looks similar to Zelda. I haven't play Zelda, but this one is cute and funny. Finished it in two days.

Thanks for the post. Just wanted to quickly mention for clarity that while we are using Ethan's FNA project (and pushing bug fixes back to him as we work), he didn't actually do the port; we did it ourselves. Just don't want people having the wrong idea there.

Also if you do want to get the game on Desura, we'd appreciate people using the widget on our site: http://brushfiregames.com/shipwreck/?desura. If you buy from the widget on our site we get a slightly better revenue share (85% instead of the normal 70%) which helps us out and you still get the game on Desura.

Again thanks for pointing out the game and we hope everyone who picks it up enjoys it!
