Here's something fun, Shallow Space has been re-working to be an open-world space game and the beta is now on Linux. The developer said getting it working on Linux helped overall performance.
For fans of oldschool Duke Nukem on Linux, sadly you're now out of luck. Gearbox took over the rights to Duke Nukem and Devolver's deal for Duke Nukem 3D Megaton Edition has ended, so essentially Duke Nukem 3D Megaton Edition is no more.
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.
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.
