The developers of 'Can't Drive This' just sent word that their crazy-fun looking racer is now on Linux. This Early Access game has your friends building the track as your drive, amusing.

Fans of good ol’ RPG adventures rejoice, you’ll be able to experience the world where evil won on November 10th. Paradox and Obsidian have put out a new trailer showing off more of the game.

'Maia' is an Early Access colony building sim that has always shown promise, but the problem is that it has been quite buggy. This new release has polished the game up quite a bit.

Inspired by a feature request in our forums, and because it was interesting to implement, you can now use a 'signature image' of your pc details and username.

It has been nearly 7 months since the last release of the rather good looking open source RTS 0 A.D. and they only have 8 tickets left open to finish, 4 of which are patches with code basically ready.

Transport Fever is really starting to look great, and the best news is that Linux is confirmed to be a day-1 release. We also have a new gameplay video.

Valve are needing people to work on Mesa to prepare it for OpenVR, and they will be paying for the effort of course.

As of today Mesa now has full OpenGL 4.4 support (with 4.5 already done) for both AMD radeonsi and Intel (i965/gen8+). Mesa won't actually expose any higher than OpenGL 4.3 until Mesa (well, someone) pays up for the Conformance Tests.

The AMD developer Marek Olšák sent over a patch to Mesa for the AMD radeonsi driver that he found by luck, and it improves DiRT: Showdown on Ultra settings by 15%. It's likely of course that this can help other games too.

Valve have given out updated numbers for their Steam Controller and they expect to sell 1 million by early 2017. They are also planning to allow configuration of other gamepads, with the PS4's Dualshock 4 coming first.

This is really annoying. 'Through the Woods', a very promising psychological horror is no longer coming to Linux and was only announced two weeks before release due to platform-specific technology.

More information courtesy of all the developers at SteamDevDays. Steam will apparently be getting a massive update/refresh soon and the amount of games releasing on Steam has been increasing by a lot.

Well, news from SteamDevDays is starting to trickle into my feed and I will do my best to keep up with it all for you. First up is Steam VR which will finally support Linux and the big news is that it will use Vulkan to do it.

Recursed, is a new indie puzzle platformer that might just warp your mind a little bit. I've been playing it and don't let the graphical style fool you, it's quite good.

VR support for Linux has been lacking and the communication around it has been pretty damn poor by Valve and HTC, but it seems this is about to change at SteamDevDays.

In January 2017 it looks like AMD will finally release their brand new clean-sheet (it's a new design) Zen CPU architecture, and damn it sounds exciting.

Paradox Development Studio’s popular empire-building grand strategy game has gotten its latest expansion. Rights of Man and the plethora of free features in the accompanying patch do much to change the game.

My god, ForeveRacers might be my new favourite stupid thing. It's an online racer where the cars are all top heavy physics wobbly things.

For those who know me, they will know I love strategy and sandbox building games. Not only that but I love things based around space and other planets. So Earth Space Colonies deserved a try.

If you’ve ever fantasized about killing uncountable amounts of giant mushrooms invading your homeland, Mushroom Crusher Extreme is a game with arcade elements that lets you do just that. The game got day-1 Linux support and I took a look to see what it was like.
