BossConstructor is an indie game I've been waiting on for quite a while, and the Early Access release is upon us. Read on for some thoughts on this epic space game

In the second of a two part opinion series, I will offer up my own personal conviction that the Amnesia games do not actually live up to the full potential demonstrated by their predecessors.

Hello again folks! Today I bring news that Double Action a new shooter than can be played in first or third person has arrived for Linux, and it's bloody funny.

On Wednesday the developer of Teslagrad, Rain Games, secured a $150,000 grant from the Norwegian Film Institute (NFI) to continue development on the sequel to Teslagrad, World to the West.

Transistor, a game made by the developers of the well-received Bastion, is finally available on Linux.

DeadCore popped up on Steam a little over a week ago with neat trailers showing interesting, fast-paced gameplay. How well does DeadCore work in the practice? We are here to find out.

This weekend I decided to do what I haven't done in a long time.... explore Steam Greenlight! One game that caught my attention more than the others was Forward to the Sky.

After collecting more than twice of their goal on Kickstarter in 2012, the retro action platformer was released for Windows in September last year but is now available for Linux for the first time in an open beta on Steam.

Raven's Cry, the pirate-themed open-world action RPG from TopWare Interactive and Reality Pump has a new release date. See inside for the scoop!

You may remember me praising Ziggurat for being an awesome Early Access title. Well, here's another one that I've been pretty interested in for a while that is quite a mix: Hand of Fate!

The developers of Reflex have pulled the plug on their Kickstarter campaign, as it's unrealistic that the goal still can be achieved (10 days left, 81k/360k pledged). The project won't be abandoned though, as it has been greenlit on Steam and is being prepared for Early Access. If Linux support is still on their list is questionable.

There has to be a conspiracy of some sort against us. I believe someone somewhere is deliberately trying to ruin our productivity by unleashing a storm of awesome games that we (at least I) get hooked on. Here's one of them: Borderlands 2!
