I was extremely impressed with Slime-san when I took a look and it's about to get a huge free content update, in the form of a free DLC.

I wrote about Stellar Tactics in October last year, as it looked like a pretty decent space exploration RPG and the developer was planning Linux support. It seems the Linux version is now coming closer!

You asked, some of you repeatedly and so I listened. GOL now officially runs a server for Rust and you're all welcome to join in.

Oh goodie, another new unit that's actually on our side. Let's take a look at The Skirmisher another unit you will find in the War of the Chosen expansion coming to XCOM 2.

Recently, Valve did a presentation about Steam during Indigo 2017 which took place in June. The interesting and not surprising thing here is that Steam just keeps on growing.

I posed a question on Twitter recently where I asked developers to jump in with thoughts on essential things to know about when bringing a game to Linux. Let’s look over some answers!

Galimulator is another fun little find on itch, it's a 'galaxy emulator' where you can watch what happens, or you can decide to take control.

RogueCraft Squadron is another great find on itch. A simple RTS game that has perma-death and upgrades like you might find in a roguelike.

Colony Survival is a new Early Access mix of a strategy game and a survival game with a voxel style, but is it any good?

The Witcher 3 is something Linux users have been practically begging to have, but the problem is that it seems it will likely never come to Linux. An ex-Virtual Programming developer has taken to reddit explaining why this may have happened.

Rise of Industry (formerly known as Project Automata) is a neat little find on itch today, a simulation game about building a small company into an industrial and financial empire!

Really quite amazing news for the itch games store, as more people are finally taking notice. Double Fine now have a good bunch of their titles on it.
