Air Conflicts - Experience top combat action in this brand new arcade flight sim and become immersed in the exploits of famous aircraft carriers. The developers have stated they expect it to hit Linux in a few weeks.

They stated all of this lovely news on their Steam forum post:
QuoteSorry for entering this discussion so late - we were severely swamped with finalizing the production of Air Conflicts: Vietnam and things have been very rough here (as always during the final months:) ).

Anyway, let me explain. The game is available on Linux/Mac; however, it was not officially launched yet. Linux/Mac versions should be already done, we are waiting for the approval from publisher and subsequent launch, which I hope will happen really very soon. I don't know why it shows up for Linux/Mac as it was not yet launched, we will check with the publisher if they have made some mistake perhaps (or if we did:) ).

And then:
QuoteIt is in all interest to release it out asap indeed. I hope we can get the approval by end of this week, so it possibly can be released in the upcoming week, or so? But that's quite optimistic, these things always take time :).

Realistically - I would say in the next few weeks (3 weeks to be my guess)

So fly-boys (and girls of course it's just a saying don't shoot me), are you ready to earn your wings on Linux?

Nice! Will definitely buy this one. Just a shame I didn´t buy it on the summer sale when it was 75 % off. But hopefully it will be worth 28 €.

I really, really miss Battlefield 1942 =( Probably the only Game I miss from *those* days that I can't find an alternative for.
