The 1992 classic Secret Agent has been revived with a HD remaster from Apogee Entertainment and Emberheart Games that was surprise announced and released today with Secret Agent HD.

It's not just a simple remaster of a classic though. While it does contain all three original episodes, along with support for modern systems and resolutions it also brings with it the brand new Secret Agent Episode 4 with a new collection of missions to play through. Secret Agent HD also comes with a brand new original soundtrack, plus there's a built in level editor and Steam Workshop support.

"The new Apogee Entertainment is focused on helping today’s developers reach new audiences with their unbelievable talent, but we’re fans of the classics too," said Scott Miller, Apogee founder, "The ‘90s will never die—we’ve got new missions 30 years in the making to prove it"

More to the point, will Linux now get a release for Crystal Caves HD?

It already has! Been playing it on my laptop with ubuntu.

https://www.gog.com/game/crystal_caves_hd (not advertised as such but comes with the Linux installer as an extra)

Um, it quite literally says that Linux-based operating systems are supported...
"Works on: Windows (7, 8, 10), Linux (Ubuntu 16.04, Ubuntu 18.04)"


Quoting: PhlebiacThis sure looks similar to (how I remember) Duke Nukem 1 and 2; probably the same engine. Looks like GOG doesn't have *any* Duke Nukem games, surprisingly.

Pretty sure Gearbox had them removed.

This.

They used to be on GOG.com, but they were removed ages ago... If you had already purchased them (as I did), they're still in your library; if not, you miss out. Apparently they're not on Steam anymore, either.

F#%k Gearbox, they're like a slightly less-evil version of EA.

Probably in recovery after going through this shit. Thankfully, Zenimax seems to have scrubbed every mention of this "game", so Keen might get a remake yet!

What the hell did I just watch? Please tell me that's not actually an upcoming game?

You do realize you are replying two months after the fact, right?

I am glad they got that resolved though.

That may be true, but it's not something they just fixed... It's been listed as "Linux compatible" for a long time now (several years).

Not according to the Internet Archive:

Are you confusing it with Crystal Caves Classic which had a Linux DOSBox wrapper?

Answering very, very late, but: thankfully, no. It was upccoming game at some point, but the backlash was too much (thank goodness) and they've scrapped the project.

Yeah, I had a feeling you'd be keen to look at it. That was awful, sorry.

I wish I had something to show in return, but nothing coequal comes to my mind. :D
