BossConstructor, an indie 2D spaceship building and battling game recently added in some free new content.

Immortal Redneck looks like it could be something really fun for FPS fans! An FPS set in Egypt with rogue-lite and it looks pretty darn good.

Flinthook is yet another action platformer that throws in some roguelike elements and it has released with day-1 Linux support.

Geneshift, previously known as Subvein: Mutant Factions, a top-down shooter with vehicles will officially launch on April 27th (Early Access) and they also have a demo now too. UPDATED.

Today I took a look at 'Asura' a brand new hack 'n' slash title that's inspired by Indian mythology.

The developers of the beautiful action platformer Rise & Shine have posted on Steam to note that the Linux version is ready, it's just waiting on final approval from the publisher.

Tribal Pass, a genre-mashing tactical runner, is one we missed last year as they added Linux support after the initial release. Here's a few quick thoughts on it.

BRAIN / OUT is a free to play 2D side-scrolling online shooter, it looks good, so I tested it out for a while to see if it's worth your time too.

La-Mulana, the free roaming exploration platformer has had a Linux version since early last year on Steam, but now GOG have it too.

ONRAID is a self-proclaimed “challenging 2D shooter” that is heavy on the multiplayer component despite having a lot that you can do by yourself. It’s recently gone free-to-play so I gave it a look to see if it was any good.

If fighting hordes of enemies with fancifully implausible-but-shooty ranged and melee weapons is what you desire in life, Woodpunk might satiate the need. The developers have recently announced Linux support and are looking for enough votes on Greenlight to proceed.

Good news for fans of 2D action and adventure games, as the developers of Hollow Knight have announced it will officially launch for Linux tomorrow.

Dark Horizons: Mechanized Corps, a mech combat game on Steam now has a Beta available with Linux support baked-in.

I wrote about The Signal From Tölva back in August of last year as it looks amazing. It has now been released on Windows and the developers are still fully open to getting it on Linux.

Classic first-person shooters are without question my favourite video game genre, and it would be nice to be able to sit down and play more Indie games that can satisfy both my classic FPS craving while at the same time pushing the genre forward. Ziggurat attempts to do both, and it wins my respect for that.

Serious Sam's Bogus Detour is another Serious Sam title, but this one is a top-down manic shooter for up to 12 players.

Man O' War: Corsair - Warhammer Naval Battles only added Linux support back on March after I poked the developer and now they have a final release date set.

Inner Chains is a rather dark FPS powered by Unreal Engine 4 and it does look incredible. The problem is, the release date has been set with no Linux release in sight.

Linux gamers can now easily play the classic fighting game 'Pray for Death', as GOG have packaged it up with DOSBox.
