While sites like STEAM and GOG are often the go-to for our gaming pleasure, there are still some indie gems hidden in the corners of the Internet that forgo these venerable platforms. One of those is Starsector, an open world space combat sim set in the distant future where civilization is slowly collapsing.

Stardust Galaxy Warriors looks like another good one for the Steam Machine race, as it combines good looking visuals with fun looking gameplay.

A viking with a gun you say? Okay, I'm interested. At the end of October Gunnheim released for Linux, and it looks quite fun.

The Mean Greens - Plastic Warfare is a pretty damn good looking action game about plastic toy soldiers, reminds me of a game I played like it years ago. The developers are interested in a Linux version, and want testers.

I've been sent Sunken by a user, and I have to say it looks like quite a good addition to the action RPG genre, the good news is the developer is already planning a Linux version.

Lucius II is a game we sadly overlooked, once again due to it not showing up in Steam's new releases section due to adding the Linux version later. Lucius II has a unique twist where you play the bad guy and wreak havoc as the son of the devil.

Hatred, that weird shooter about killing anyone and everyone is now in testing for Linux the developer has confirmed, and SteamDB shows it too.

I'm a big fan of Dying Light, even with it being a bit iffy at times for me, but the general gameplay is fantastic. The developers have announced a newer Dying Light: Enhanced Edition is coming

If you like first-person dungeon crawling, I seriously suggest you take a look at The Fall of the Dungeon Guardians.

Hybrid Beasts was sent to me on twitter earlier, and after watching the trailer I'm pretty much sold. It looks like it could be good fun.

Great news, Bound By Flame an interesting looking action RPG from developer Spiders and publisher Focus Home Interactive. I asked for a port in 2014, and now it's here!

SkyScrappers is deceptively simple looking, but I've been playing it a bit with the brand new SteamOS & Linux release and I've found it to be a pretty fun little fighting game.

A forum post from one of the Rocket League team has stated that the game will be on Linux before the end of December.

GOG have now put up the Linux versions of the original The Escapists along with all the DLC, so you can begin your DRM free escape adventures.

12 is Better Than 6 was funded on Kickstarter last month and is already available as a full release on Steam.

I have it straight from the developer that Dying Light's DLC The Following will be on Linux, after I saw reports and speculation that it wouldn't be. The price is also set to rise, so you may want to pickup the season pass soon due to how big it is.

Hollow Knight's trailer took me by surprise, not only do the graphics and animations look really sweet, but the gameplay actually looks rather good.

Switch Galaxy Ultra looks pretty decent, it has some positive reviews, and it has parts designed by WipeOut co-creator Jim Bowers.

Broforce is by far my favourite action platformer ever made, that is an easy decision for me to make. The fact they are still updating it is awesome.

Storm United is easily one of my favourite up and coming FPS games, it needs more players so get going people.
