Android Console
By MaximB, 12 July 2012 at 7:13 am UTC

I thought about pledging, but the hardware specs are very very low, it's not even close to todays consoles (ps3, xbox360,wii) and it cannot run those hi-end games.
I would really wanted to play Tekken5 , Street Fighter4, MK9 without buying an expensive console, but I guess this android console won't be able to run them even if they got ported to Android somehow.

The only games I would be able to play are the games I can currently play on my Samsung Galaxy S2 device, and some Linux games...
So it seems like it doesn't worth it for me at this point.

Nah, in general I do not do pre-orders (just a personal thing), and Overgrowth has only been on Linux for a few months.

Sorry, one of my hobbies is running Wikis, and a common trick done by the bots is latch on to one more phrases and build statements out of them. Since your thing lacked clarification, it seemed suspicious to me. Consider it nothing more than my ever growing weariness over them.

I wonder what makes my question about the correct answer I should give PayPal when sending donation you think I am a spambot... :-(

Have you had a chance to check out Overgrowth? I know it's too early to do a review, but I expect one could write quite a lot about it already.

Tryst - Unigine powered RTS coming!

Can not wait to see this come out I am aware that Wasteland 2 picked Unity but after seeing Oil Rush it would have nice to see Wasteland 2 go unigine.

Thank you at least someone agreeing with me. I am not trying to be a prick about this but come on. If you are just willing to through a game on Linux just to get your game into a bundle to make money (Limbo) and it not 100% work like it would for Windows. Then why are you bothering it really leaves a black eye. Also I just beat The Journey Down (again love the game) the last part of the game with the animation was skipping bad on my computer. Also it is funny when they say they will not do a patch for the game with there is either version 1.00 or 1.01 version you can download. So they have done some patching to the game. I am aware that I am complaining a lot but come on Linux users deserves games that work just like Windows users get.

Check the Shoutbox, I stayed up rather too late last night working on another one. No promises on when I feel it is ready to be posted though. ;)

I have to agree with Mark. This is kind of disappointing from them.

Indie Royale Summer Bundle
By Mark McKinnon, 6 July 2012 at 6:39 pm UTC

So what all software is perfect??? I really do not think so or again we would all be Windows users. Tell me then why would I have problems with The Journey Down (in game play) and not with any other games. Why would I have problem with Limbo (Sound issue) and many more people that they have to put a thread about this issue. How about Harvest when you have to download a bunch of stuff just to get it running. I have formatted my computer twice just to see if it was my computer and it still does it on all them games. Unless you are the developer of one of these games then please stop defending them. Again new users would just give up on Linux for games with these issues. If you were running these games on Windows you would not have this issue.

Agreed, this is a phenomenally well-written review! Can we expect more of these? :)
