Divinity: Original Sin has pushed back the Linux version once again, so you can give up on seeing it this year.

If you have ever felt the urge to break bad, this 2D resource management/strategy game may be relevant to your interests

Welcome to a much delayed and slightly shortened The Funding Crowd #38! We are back after a two-month hiatus with renewed energies and, what's most important, with a bigger team.

Red Thread Games, who recently released the first book of Dreamfall Chapters, received a grant from the Norwegian Film Institute (NFI) this week to continue work on their upcoming horror folk tale game Draugen.

Animal Gods is top-down action adventure game now on Kickstarter inspired by classics from the 90's brought to the 21st century with full HD, dynamic lighting and high-res textures.

The Funding Crowd Needs You! New volunteers are required to keep this column going as the current team just can't.

In this article, I want to highlight three active Kickstarter projects, with some comments on why these developers are choosing to support Linux, as well as what they think about the OS.

Beyond Human is a Metroidvania Sci-Fi platformer inspired by Metroid, Megaman, and Devil May Cry. Over two weeks to go with everything to play for!

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.

The 90's Arcade Racer was delayed again with no given release date. Graphics, models and sound are in a good shape, but the code makes some trouble for the developers. Especially the AI code is giving them some headache.

"An eerie, surrealistic, first-person game experience by an independent team of developers who helped make BioShock Infinite & BioShock." That's the tagline of one fresh Kickstarter launched by mostly ex-Irrational Games developers.

Warlocks is an awesome looking pixel art action game on Kickstarter that needs a bit of help. Slay monsters. Defeat epic bosses. Collect magical gear. Become a Warlock and save the universe.

Pathologic is a plot-driven survival open-world adventure game now on Kickstarter, but it's much more than that.

Reflex is a competitive Arena FPS that combines modern tech with the speed, precision and freedom of a 90s shooter. It may become for Quake what UT is for the Unreal series. The game just went on kickstarter and Linux is on their list!

I'll get right to the point -- why do I think Stash: No Loot Left Behind deserves a penguin clan? The game is currently being funded on Kickstarter and only needs a little push!

Warlocks is a crazy (and awesome) looking pixel art action game now on Kickstarter. The developers have told us Linux will be a day 1 release too.

The team behind the Kickstarted game A Song for Viggo have announced that they have teamed up with Talawa Games, the developer of Unmechanical, to launch the game on additional platforms, including Linux.

Untold Universe is a space voxel sandbox MMORPG. Explore, shape, colonize and conquer a huge and uncharted universe! It sounds interesting, but is it worth a look?

Band Saga, "a musical action roguelike of epic proportions" is now on Kickstarter and will be available on Linux!

If you're looking for steampunk game that combines elements of rail shooters and tower defense there's a kickstarter launching Sept 2 with your name on it! In Tumbleweed Express players must expertly defend their train while constantly battling against an endless barrage of militarized bandits, outlaws, and opposing organizations.
