I am super pumped for Stellaris, it looks like everything I have wanted in a space strategy game and this new video really has me excited.

The survival game Rust from Facepunch Studios has been updated with a bit of a controversial change. They have added in new models, including female models, but you don't get to pick your gender.

If you didn't know already, there's actually an open source Standalone Steam Controller Driver which could make it far more useful outside of Steam.

ARK: Survival Of The Fittest, the spin off from ARK: Survival Evolved is now available on Linux & SteamOS, it's free too.

Paws: A Shelter 2 Game is a standalone, single player, adventure, platformer set in the world of Shelter 2. The Lonesome Fog is a living book that seeks to expand on the concept of storytelling and explores the plight of a young cub trapped in a cycle of fear, cowardice and uncertainty.

It's always great to see when Linux/SteamOS performs really well, and this video shows Heroes of Newerth performing like a total champion for us. Note: Not our video.

I'm personally sad about this, as I have been following Enemy Starfighter for years. It reminded me of Freespace 2 which I loved. The developer confirmed to me it's no longer coming to Linux officially, but he may team up with a porter in future.

I still see a surprising amount of confusion from people on what Steam games work on Linux. Hopefully this will help clear it all up.

Today I have been creating some mighty fine dishes in Space Food Truck, it recently launched out from Early Access so I was keen to take a look.

The popular first-person mystery and adventure game Firewatch is now available DRM free on GOG, and it has Linux support of course.

VoidExpanse is a really cool space action RPG I've talked about a few times, and they recently updated the game which has fixed some major Linux issues.

Nvidia are really pushing hard on their Vulkan driver, and it's great to see them push out updates so quickly. We now have the 364.16 Vulkan driver ready for download.

The developer behind Banished, a city builder/survival game coming to Linux has written up their thoughts on Linux. It does make for an interesting read.

The developers behind Gibbous - A Cthulhu Adventure sent word in that their comedy point 'n click game is now on Kickstarter. It has a Linux demo right now, so it's good to see a project that is able to deliver on Linux even this early on.

Someone emailed in asking me to check out Bullshot, so I did, and It's easily one the stupidest games I've played to date. The graphics really are quite awesome though.

Consortium: The Tower looks like a pretty incredible FPS/RPG that is seeking funding (and it looks like it will easily hit it) on Fig. They are promising day-1 Linux & Mac support too using Unreal Engine 4. Although I do have concerns about their Linux plans. (Post updated)

I've been waiting for The Kindred to be updated to a point where it's properly playable, and now that it is I was sent keys to this interesting looking town building sim to check out.

I don't normally cover Kickstarters, but The Wild Eight not only looks like a decent survival game, the game is planned for Linux day-1 too.

Trench Run is another 2D action game from Transhuman Design and it looks like a blast to play. Make friends, and then blow them to bits.

The developers at Itch.io have certainly built a decent webstore, and their new desktop client is pretty slick too. The Itch app is now on Greenlight, which is getting them lots of free publicity, as well as being quite amusing.
