EVERSPACE 2 appears to be quite a success for ROCKFISH Games, not only is it doing well on Steam with a Very Positive rating in Early Access but they just got a big bonus from the German federal parliament.

It was pretty much a given that Dwarf Fortress was going to be popular on Steam, but the smash hit it has become is quite a surprise on just how well it's doing.

Vampire Survivors: Legacy of the Moonspell is the first expansion for the absolutely ridiculous smash-hit horde game. It releases on December 15th with a whole bunch of extra content.

Dwerve is an action-adventure with tower defense that released back in May, and they have a major update out now adding in a whole new mode more like classic tower defense games.

Frictional Games have another Amnesia game coming next year with Amnesia: The Bunker that puts a gun in your hand, and it also features a semi-open world.

Starcom: Unknown Space is entering Early Access in December from Wx3 Labs, LLC set in the same universe as their previous game Starcom: Nexus.

Black Ice is an indie first-person looter-shooter about hacking in cyberspace, I'm quite fond of it but it's not very well known even though it's a lot of fun. A big new update just rolled out with a bunch of extra content.

Dome Keeper is one of my favourite indie releases this year, blending together casual underground mining with frantic base-defence and a new update just rolled out making it even more interesting.

Love Euro Truck Simulator 2 and American Truck Simulator? Two very popular games that SCS Software have been upgrading for a long time now, and they're celebrating their 25th anniversary.

Aquamarine has some great artwork but it seems the initial release didn't stick with a lot of people, which hopefully the new free Explorer's Edition upgrade will solve.

Lumencraft is a really interesting game that blends together elements of tower-defense, base-building, mining and a little Deep Rock Galactic in a top-down view. A big new release is out now and it's Steam Deck Verified with Native Linux support.

Isonzo from M2H, BlackMill Games is set to get bigger on December 5th, with the release of a free expansion featuring the Germans.

This is really great to see! Armello from developer League of Geeks has a fresh update out, and it restores full Linux support.

I just finished watching all of Black Sails (which was fantastic) and was in the mood for some pirating fun, so the Early Access release of Arcane Waters makes for good timing.

Possibly one of the most promising retro-styled FPS games coming to Linux, Selaco is getting a huge demo upgrade next month.

Another developer attempting to turn the classic Chess into something weird and wonderful. Chess Survivors takes set pieces and moves from Chess, sticks it into a blender and out came a grid based, quick-turn, roguelike.

Broforce Forever is the name of a new free update coming to the crazy action-platform Broforce, sometime in early 2023.

TailQuest Defense looks like one to pop on your wishlist. After 5 years in development from a two-person team in Godot Engine, a demo is up now.

Rusted Warfare is a great RTS for people who love the classics. One I discovered years ago on Android and then it later had a PC release. A big new release version 1.15 adds in loads to it.

Easily one of the best open source games around, Mindustry from AnukenDev just had a MASSIVE new release out that took quite some time to make.
