I wrote about The Signal From Tölva back in August of last year as it looks amazing. It has now been released on Windows and the developers are still fully open to getting it on Linux.

Classic first-person shooters are without question my favourite video game genre, and it would be nice to be able to sit down and play more Indie games that can satisfy both my classic FPS craving while at the same time pushing the genre forward.

Man O' War: Corsair - Warhammer Naval Battles only added Linux support back on March after I poked the developer and now they have a final release date set.

It would seem that Friday has once again arrived and that naturally means that I will be treating you to a Linux gaming experience via a video feed. So, prepare your snacks and warm up your video player of choice for some live Linux gaming.
