Posted by , 27 June 2014 at 5:30 pm UTC / 14203 views
Valve are pushing really quickly recently and have gathered together another list of games to allow on Steam. 36 of which are confirmed for Linux.

My favourites
BossConstructor - You get to build and pilot your own spaceships. What's not to love about that?

Black Ice - A cyberpunk first person shooter (FPS) with strong RPG elements. I've actually played this one and it's got the beginnings to create an awesome game.

I do wonder how long it will be before they remove Greenlight and turn it into the open system they stated they wanted, but with the titles they are allowing in themselves at the moment it's bad enough. I really think they need to do some more curation on the store itself.

Flower Shop: Winter In Fairbrook, too. The Greenlight page doesn't mention it, though, for some reason. But it uses Ren'Py, and Winter Wolves just confirmed there is a Linux version.

Still no Tallowmere? What a shame. Feel free to give that game some support if you're into it. I think it's turning out to be quite fun.

Man, Gender Bender DNA Twister Extreme goes out of its way to be some offensive trash, doesn't it? I guess deviantART members need games too. That one's on my "Not If You Freakin' Paid Me" list.


These ones look like they have potential though:

The problem with Voidspace is that it will heavily favor those with allot of excess computational power at their disposal, the guy using his company's desktops to crunch coins every night is going to have tons of surplus coins to throw around, while Joe Regular that jumps into the game on his laptop is going to be SOL as crunching coins will turn his laptop into a puddle.

Was just about to comment, Kels.

And yes, Gender Bender DNA Twister Extreme... Fetishization of trans* people... Bad.

The Deer God
insomnia looks like its borrowing almost the entire design of fallout 1/2, paired with some new gameplay. beeing a big fan of the earlier fallout games im ok with that tho and looking forward to this a lot. question is how the shoulder perspective gameplay will work out in the end, having my doubts there.

deer god looks very atmospheric. not really like a game that will bring long term motivation or advanced gameplay but a nice little novelle with style.

I would expect it's aimed at much the same demographic as Superbrothers: Sword and Sworcery, which was a huge hit.
