It has been a day over three years since Steam was initially put into a limited beta for Linux, and since then things have never quite been the same for Linux gaming thanks to SteamOS as well.
A Story About My Uncle is a rather good looking first person adventure from Gone North Games and published by Coffee Stain Studios (think Sanctum 2 and Goat Simulator). It looks like it's heading to Linux too, which is obviously awesome.
I absolutely love Starbound, but it's one game I keep having to remind myself to wait for the full release. It's going to be awesome, and I'm glad I've been waiting after they have revealed some plans.
Rise: Battle Lines is a quick and accessible multiplayer-focused battle game that delivers meaty strategy in a bite-size format. It's just been released on Linux (via Steam) for the princely sum of $4.99/£3.99!
For those that were unaware, it's Friday today. Yes, that day of the week which many of us celebrate because we are now, for a moment, free from the shackles of work, school etc. It's also the day we stream some games for you to watch, so that's also a thing.
AMD has announced their next generation driver platform, Crimson, as part of AMD’s new more agile and vertical software initiative that’s come from the reorganization into the Radeon Technologies Group.
Aspyr Media's (porters of Borderlands to Linux) store GameAgent is running a little give-away, and it couldn't be more exciting. You could win a top-end Alienware Steam Machine.
PONCHO is an open-world puzzle platformer where you control a robot who is able to flip between parallax layers. The game was released on the Humble Store and Steam this week, and I've taken a look at it.
We know how terrible Larian has been at over-promising Divinity: Original Sin Enhanced Edition for Linux, but with the game now listing Linux on SteamDB they are actually working on it.
Sooner than I thought they would, but exciting to see. There are details leaking out that Nvidia GPU driver 358.66 will add a bunch of Vulkan support in.
