Team Meat have confirmed via Twitter that they plan to have their platform game Super Meat Boy running natively on Linux.
Super meat boy is an interesting take on platformers. You play as an animated cube of meat trying to save his girlfriend.
Currently Super Meat Boy is available via Steam (PC) Xbox Live (Xbox)

@SuperMeatBoy are you planning to release a Linux version of the game sometimes in the future?

I have no interest in giving this guy any money after hearing [this interview](http://www.levelfortytwo.com/2009/12/talk-is-cheap-12-21-09/) with him (skip to around 43:55):
"There'll also be a Linux version, because (laughing) we're gonna waste our time with a Linux version (laughs). Linux is garbage."
"I can't wait for some Linux programmer guy to e-mail me and say "I'll port this for free", because I already have the e-mail already written that I'm going to send back to him, and basically tell him to fuck off, indefinitely."
"The source belongs to [B]me[/B], alright. So open source, no way. Linux, Linux can fuck off for all I care."

Welcome to the forums! :)
Personally I'm really not interested what he has said in the past, if Super Meat Boy materialises on Linux it can only help those of us who are interested in gaming on the linux platform. the more games that are produced for our platform of choice the better. Which in turn will produce more people willing to give Linux as their OS a chance. More games, More users, and hopefully we can get out of this catch 22 situation Linux is in.

Yeah those comments are a little over the top, up I would agree with Rusty More games on Linux the Better. Not to metion if there is a Linux version I will by it just to prove him wrong.
