In Alwa's Awakening you are a stranger who has been summoned to help rid Alwa of evil! A very retro throwback at the NES era and it pulls it off pretty well.

Now this is the kind of idea I think is extremely cool. An ASCII-styled RPG called 'Stone Story' will come to Linux, come check out the trailer.

The developers of Signs of Life switched from XNA to MonoGame a few months ago and now the Linux build has been promoted to an officially supported platform.

A few days ago I wrote about 'River City Ransom: Underground' not getting day-1 Linux support, but it seems it will and the developer had their wires crossed somewhere. Note: Article updated.

An indie puzzle platformer, where you must control the world around you with words, by the name of Typoman: Revised has made its way onto Linux via Steam.

'The Dweller' is one of those obscure games that for some reason, despite being well made and original they pass completely unnoticed under the radar, and once you finally play them you not only feel you've spent a couple of hours on a worthy title, but also the fact itself of finding them is totally rewarding.

Into The Breach has been announced by Subset Games, the creators of the excellent FTL. It will support Linux, but not at day-1.

The developer of Tinertia sent in some keys at user-request for us to take a look at this rather amusing twin-stick shooter.

Vidar has a lot going for it even this early on, as a fan of 2D RPG, Adventure & Puzzle games it ticks a lot of boxes for me.

Ethan Lee has another port available for us day-1, today we are graced with Bleed 2. It's described as a relentless action game and looks mental.

This was confirmed by Polytron on Twitter. All the money will be sent to an American charity called American Civil Liberties Union.

FortressCraft Evolved is a game I often overlook, but perhaps not for much longer. It has a truly massive update with a much better tutorial and a very slick new look for the surface of worlds.

Overdriven Reloaded, a vertical-scrolling shoot 'em up is now on Linux. We have quite a few games like it, but this has 4 player co-op so it might just be enough to hook some in.
