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.

Starbound, Terraria and Crea not enough for you? Planet Centauri is yet another sandbox 2D indie RPG with crafting and digging for you to sink your teeth into.

Patterna is a very deceptive game, it looks very simplistic, but the overall package it offers is delightful.

Morgondag, the developer of RymdResa has launched a new Kickstarter for their puzzle game set on an asteroid base. That sounds pretty cool, so come take a look. I also have confirmation about an existing Linux build, awesome.

I'm never one to shy away from patting my fellow Linux users on the back, so here it is *pats*. Thanks to the Linux gaming community and our own contributor BTRE, ZED by Eagre Games has passed the funding goal on Kickstarter.

Marinatide looks like a pretty cute little fishing game and the developers emailed me to confirm it will be Linux supported.

Legacy of the Elder Star is a new indie shoot 'em up recently released on Steam with Linux support, the developer sent me a key so I had a little play.

SWARMRIDERS is a FREE "endless runner"+"twin stick shooter" ARCADE mashup. A "machine gun swarm surfing minigame" made as a bonus content for the UBERMOSH community.

The Wardrobe is a 2D point & click game inspired by the great 90s classics such as 'Monkey Island', 'Day of the Tentacle', 'Tony Tough' and 'Sam & Max: Hit the Road'.

Some time ago I ended up testing this little game called RymdResa on a livestream. Afterwards I decided to look into it a little bit more and I am now here to present my thoughts on the experience.

I personally think Operator Overload looks fantastic and the developer email me to let me know it's fully Linux supported and needs help on Greenlight.

UFHO2, a mix of strategy and a board game is now completely free on Steam. No adverts, no in-game transactions or anything. It's just free.

In Case of Emergency, Release Raptor is the latest game from Arcen Games, LLC and a rather big departure from their usual stuff. You're a velociraptor in space tearing up robots.

The very cool cyberpunk strategy game Satellite Reign now has a co-op mode named Uplink you can opt into and play with your friends.

I've been looking forward to giving Nation Red a go, as it is a few years old but still highly rated by a lot of people. You fight off a zombie hoard while earning tons of perks.

Defender's Quest Deluxe is a brand new upgraded version of the RPG/Tower Defence game Defender's Quest: Valley of the Forgotten that brings lots of new goodies.

I arranged an interview with Eagre to talk about ZED and their experiences with Linux and our community, including the decision to change support from a stretch goal to a base funding goal. ZED is an upcoming adventure puzzle game built with Unreal Engine 4 that’s currently on Kickstarter.

I've kept my eye on Crea for quite a while and while it may seem a lot like Starbound and Terraria it's actually quite different.

SteamWorld Heist is the follow up title to the indie hit SteamWorld Dig. A very different game, but it has the charm of the original and then some.

Starbound is a really cool game that has supported Linux for quite some time, but they had their SteamOS icon removed on Steam some time ago. The developer is doing a reddit AMA so I decided to pop two questions that got nice answers.
