Satellite Reign is the visually stunning spiritual successor to syndicate and it now has a released co-op mode, along with a hefty 50% off sale.

I've enjoyed a great many hours in RimWorld. It has charming visuals much like Prison Architect, but you're building a colony with a choice of different AI behind the scenes.

The developers of Turmoil, a simulation game about digging for oil are looking for testers using SteamOS.

Crush Your Enemies is one you could easily dismiss with the graphical style, but I assure you it's quite fun.

I feel bad for the Battlestation: Harbinger developer, as I think it's a pretty nice name but another developer has coined the "Battlestation" term so they have to change their name. They will also be doing a free update soon.

We've been kicking around some ideas about doing a livestream of one of Paradox's grand strategy games. There's a pretty big fan base among GOL readers, so it would be interesting to see how much interest there is and what people would want.

Shen’s Last Gift is the next DLC available for XCOM 2 that brings in mech units to help you fight the alien menace.

After speaking to the developer of The Spatials: Galactology, it seems they are now doing a day-1 Linux release.
