From the forum post asking about it:
QuoteThe game is being developed on Unity. We are striving for MAC/Linux/Steam OS. Not all of them will be supported when we launch on Early Access.
If you're going to post in that forum topic to give your support, remember that just "+1" is considered spam by Steam. It's also rather unhelpful, voice your support properly.
It looks pretty amazing, so I really do hope the developers do keep Linux in mind and don't let it fall to the bottom of the list.
About the game (Official)
The year is 2046 and mankind’s discovery of near-lightspeed "fold engine" propulsion has empowered mankind's Osiris expeditionary missions to the Gliese 581 system. You are the second colonization team sent by the U.N.E. (United Nations of Earth) to study potential habitable planets when your spacecraft malfunctions braking from light speed, forcing an emergency landing on the planet’s surface.
Overcome the dangers of an environment with unpredictable weather conditions by building a central base, expanding the structure further with modular units to grow food, create research centers, manufacturing bays and more. To further advance technologies and thrive on the planet, traverse into a world filled equally with breathtaking landscapes and alien terrors that will freeze your blood. Osiris is a beautiful game that uniquely combines inventive crafting, curious exploration, and skillful combat. Explore an alien system and colonize worlds of incredible wonders and unforgiving dangers. Article taken from GamingOnLinux.com.

Wait. What does that mean? I read it as something like, "Gonna try to get this game on Mac and Linux/SteamOS --- but ultimately, only one of these two when we release on Early Access." So it will be available on Mac OR Linux/SteamOS upon Early Access release?
I'm missing something, aren't I? Because as written, this sounds to me less certain than the commonplace: "Windows only at launch, Linux later" comment.
That said, yes, this game looks exactly like the sort of thing I'd play and like to see more of available for Linux.

I take that as, all system will be supported. But during EA or at the launche of there EA progam, they wont support all systems, mac/steamos or linux. I assume if linux dont get the support, it will be added later down the dev road map or after the game is out of EA. And Im not saying its not coming linux or is confirmed.
But to me it seems they want to support all systems, maybe not right away.
Like they say them selfs.

Quoting: EhvisApart from the fact that +1's are complete useless (if a dev would listen to the number of +1's, then a port would never come), you can be a bit more verbose. After all, you expert a dev to put effort into making a port, the least you can do is express you interest in a proper sentence.I wonder what this says about democratic elections ✓ :)

Looks indeed very nice. I really like the cartoonish style a lot!
If they GOG it, I'll buy it :D

I've got a couple friends interested in this one - we've gone through Space Engineers, Empyrion, ARK, 7 Days to Die, modded Minecraft, Starbound... not going to lie, the whole crafting/survival multiplayer thing sometimes feels like it's an overdone 'me too!' genre (kind of reminds me of the explosion of MMORPGs after WoW showed up EverQuest), but if this does end up getting a Linux build, being Unity and all, I'd be tempted to try it, just to play with them through one more of these.
The other question, though - if it's multiplayer, will it at least get a Linux dedicated server build? (And, will it run in FreeBSD's 'Linuxulator', or will I have to at least fire up my Ubuntu Server VM?) Something to watch, I guess!
