Travel through time in the action-adventure Mai: Child of Ages - now with Linux support

Mai: Child of Ages from developer Chubby Pixel launched recently, and an update has added official Native Linux support.

Launched originally on September 18th, the developer added Native Linux support in the update from October 3rd. The game is also Steam Deck Verified, although currently by default the Steam Deck uses Proton but this may check if Valve re-check it.

More about it:

Follow Mai on her journey through a shattered world as she searches for her identity and the origin of the mysterious creatures that threaten the balance of the universe.

Venture through past and future, exploring Zelda-like dungeons, and uncover the bond that ties Mai to the enigmatic figure who will guide her throughout the adventure, teaching her the mastery of the arcane Uroboro Stone.

The gameplay mechanics evolve seamlessly, shifting from precision platforming to hack and slash combat, adapting to the era you explore.
