Ugh. There's something yucky about that screenshot. Can't... quite... tell what it is...

:D :D

Quoting: GuestEdit: apparently the game lasts just 2 hours

That means at least five-six hours for me then. I'm all about slow progress in games - especially when I got slightly scary sh*t at hand. :D

I occasionally purchase Early Access games. Sometimes I'll do it just to show support for someone who's supporting Linux. Other times I'll purchase Early Access games that look like fun in their unfinished form. Always, though, the price must be low enough to offset the sense of "risky purchase" associated with the Early Access tag.

With the exception of Victor Vran, and one or two others, I don't play the Early Access titles I've purchased until they're either released from, or die in, Early Access.

Slime Rancher went on my wishlist as soon as I saw it was available for Linux, but, as others have said here, the price hasn't gone low enough to warrant my purchasing it in its unfinished state. I've little doubt I will buy it someday, just not yet.

Quoting: tmtvlWay I see it you support Linux for the ideology, not for profit margins.

I guess companies like Feral and Aspyr are really big on ideology then. ;)

QuoteSince we’re using Unity, supporting linux basically ‘just works,’ or at least it works enough for us to get a great start on it.
...
So it’s difficult to say if it has been worth the trouble.

So about $30000 so far is potentially not worth the 'trouble'? That's a pretty sad mentality... If they spend 6+ months banging their heads against Linux specific issues, ok fair enough, but somehow I doubt that.

The problem with Linux gamers occupying such a low marketshare currently, and the record number of games we have available now, is that the potential sales are divided up even further. Years ago I bought all games that supported Linux just to reward the developers/publishers, even if I never actually played the games. Now I have many choices, so I buy only games I want to spend time and money on. I really appreciate game developers supporting Linux, as it helps the chicken & egg situation, but I hope they don't expect a huge ROI right away.

Also like many others here, I never consider Greenlit/Early Access games.

Just bought it. Very atmospheric game, nicely done.

I bought it, found out it requires pulseaudio, then got a refund. I like the look of the game, but not enough to switch to pulse.

I initiated this on a piece of paper, scanned it and completed with GIMP.

I bought it in the Humble Store very early during development since it also comes DRM free and it included a future Steam key. I hope it got tracked as a Linux sale.

Even when the full release comes out, Linux is gonna be a very small fraction of sales, and probably not worth it.
Way I see it you support Linux for the ideology, not for profit margins.

This is one I've definitely got my eye on... but just to reiterate many others' point - not until a full release.

Nice job from Kalypso and developer!

I'm going to skip this one because I own way too many similar games that I still have to play, but surely I'll check this out in the future (aka discounted) :)

Quoting: MaeghtyMuffinsMe do good. Except the link to the image doesn't appear to work. Used the bbcode tags... no joy...

Ok, imgur has made this less obvious at some point, so here's a short guide:

When you mouse over an image you've just uploaded, at the top you'll see an url you can copy. Ignore this one, and instead hover over the downward-pointing chevron icon at the top right corner of the image. Now click "Get share links" in the hover menu that appears. Then click the Copy button next to the field titled "BBCode (Forums)" and paste it to your comment here as is. This way you get the image url wrapped in img tags correctly, so just hit preview or post and bask in the glory of your artistic achievement.

Hope this helps someone. I'm sure there are other, less complicated image hosting services available though.

Thanks for the tip. Managed to get a good link.

It's not really useful to measure any purchasing potential with pre-release versions of games. The audience which buys them is a small percentage of the final audience, therefore any numbers and ratios can be completely skewed and random. There is no point to break your head on analyzing why numbers fall a certain way for alpha / beta versions. After the release - that's another story.

I almost bought this one several times on Steam. Then it was released on GOG, almost bought it several more times... I've been really trying to wait for a full release though.

I loved playing Train Fever! I did have one issue with it not being able to load when I used Windows, but when I switched to Linux, it worked! The only thing is that performance isn't great, at least with AMD graphics on Linux, and the keys aren't easily re-bindable as far as I can tell (since I use the Colemak keyboard layout, WASD isn't in the same place). I don't think it's worth the criticism though as it's essentially a nice update to OpenTTD.
