I Hate Running Backwards, a fast-paced infinite runner shoot 'em up hybrid with Serious Sam, confirmed for Linux

After teasing us on Twitter, the developer behind the awesome looking infinite runner shoot 'em up hybrid 'I Hate Running Backwards' [Steam, Official Site] has confirmed Linux support.

Originally, the game was going to be called Serious Sam: I Hate Running Backwards, however, they've ended up adding in a lot more content than they originally planned. It still has Serious Sam as a playable character, but there's other characters in it now too.

It will have non-stop action, daily challenges, local co-op multiplayer, randomly generated levels, a destructible environment along with vehicles. It looks absolutely insane, take a look at a beta trailer from late last year:

In terms of vehicles, they've said there will be cars, boats, mine carts and it will also have a monster so big you need to jump into a helicopter to fight it—sound glorious.

It's due out sometime around March/April this year.
