Kinetic Void 3D space adventure will be heading to Linux

Kinetic Void is a 3D space adventure with a focus on customization and enjoyable space simulation. The game is one of the few in Steam's new Early Access section (meaning it's early in development).

So this has everything I like in a game, it's space themed, I can build a ship and fly it around and with good visuals as well, this game is full of "win".

Their F.A.Q clearly states it will be heading to Linux!

QuoteQ: What operating system does KV run on?
A: We are developing on Unity3d, and will be deploying to Windows, OSX, and Linux.

Features:

• Fully detailed and customizable space ships.
• Hundreds of weapons and modules of multiple sizes
• Fully customizable and adaptable controls for mouse, keyboard, and joystick.
• Huge procedurally generated galaxy, limited only by your computers capabilities.
• Randomized factions and political standings.
• Open world sandbox, you are in control of your fate.
• Detailed economy simulation with resources, trade routes and more.
• Epic space combat.
• Toggleable Newtonian Flight
• Emergent gameplay.

Looking forward to seeing this one come to Linux. There has been a delay in the Linux version thanks to the "Scaleform" which they are moving away from:

QuoteWe ran into some problems with the Mac and Linux client using scaleform, so we are changing to another UI framework. I have been working on the UI all day, I hope to have it up and running soon.

We are NOT switching from Unity.
