Arriving in Early Access just recently is Odd Realm, a 2D simulation game that has you take care of a group of settlers to explore, build and survive.

This is a bit of a highlight and something I hope we see more of in future. You can now be matched up with people across Steam and all major consoles in Rocket League.

I said before we would see Valve start talking a lot more this year, especially with the Epic Store being a thing and we're starting to see that now. Valve have put out a post giving some background on Steam and what's to come in future.

Bomb Squad Academy, a game I totally missed from 2017 (yes really, woops!) is an interesting puzzle game about disarming bombs.

The developer of Ultra Off-Road Simulator 2019: Alaska, a surprisingly good looking off-road driving sim may gain Linux support with enough requests.

Hero of the Kingdom III, a casual RPG from Lonely Troops released back in August last year but it seems it came with a few issues for those on newer distributions.

After spending a good few hours enjoying the Battle Royale game Darwin Project on Linux thanks to Steam Play, it has come to an abrupt end.

Pikuniku from the studio Sectordub and Devolver Digital is releasing January 24th and it will support Linux at release.

Arc Savior, a new space combat game from developer Squid Monkey Studios is releasing later this month and it looks quite interesting. Turns out the developer is going to support Linux too.

As promised by the developers of Volcanoids, the Linux version of their very interesting first-person steampunk survival game is live and ready for when they hit Early Access.

Here's a fun statistic for you today! Steam Play, Valve's fork of Wine which includes DXVK has recently hit 500 titles rated as "Platinum" when going by ProtonDB reports.

When I recently talked about the big update to the survival game CHKN, I was very impressed with the game mechanics and style. However, performance was an issue.

Kontrakt actually released back in October last year, sadly it only supported older distributions but this is now fixed so I've taken a look.

Abstract Hell from developer Nathan Best released recently with Linux support and it's really quite good.

Quite a surprise turned up in my inbox recently. Spinnortality, a cyberpunk management sim that looks really good is releasing with Linux support next month.

Happy Room, a game you might not have heard of and you will be forgiven for that (I hadn't either) as it released in 2016. Turns out, they added a Linux version just after release so we completely missed it. A bit of a warning though, it's certainly not one to show a younger audience.

Eastshade certainly looks like a wonderfully peaceful experience and the new trailer show it off rather well, it's releasing soon too on February 13th.

Valve have now rolled out the latest stable update to the Steam Client which includes some nice fixes and improvements.

Fruit Tower Defense from developer Fratboy Entertainment is a title you could easily skip over and disregard due to the style but it's actually quite good.

I've been massively impressed with my time spent in Smith and Winston, which just made its way onto Steam for some Early Access fun.
