Doing my usual perusing through changelogs, game updates and so on I come across new ports. This time Wailing Heights caught my interest. A body-hopping, musical adventure game, set in a horrific hamlet of monsters.

Thanks to a few different people for their advice I have finally found a way to stop screen tearing with Nvidia proprietary drivers.

Recently the developer of Stardew Valley announced that Chucklefish (developers of Starbound) would handle porting Stardew Valley to Linux & Mac. Chucklefish have now announced they are working with Sickhead Games​ on the porting process.

La-Mulana is a positively rated, retro inspired hard platformer with puzzles and exploration. The developers have just released the Linux version on Steam.

Atriage is one title I missed due to Steam's failure to show games that produce a Linux version after the Windows release in the Linux newly released section. Atriage is a turn-based strategy game inspired by Sci-fi space naval battles in 80s Anime where you command a fleet of ten warships against a rival commander.

Dungeons & Robots is an interesting looking Early Access action RPG that looks very promising and the developers have confirmed it's coming to Linux soon.

RUNNING WITH RIFLES is easily one of those games where I can simply tell you just to buy it, as it's so much fun. They have just added Steam Workshop support and a big sale is going on. Someone has already made a mod to turn it into a zombie game.

Civilization VI has been announced, the publisher has confirmed to me that Linux will be supported and the official twitter account has also confirmed Linux will be supported.

Moebius: Empire Rising is the adventure game with a story written by Jane Jensen (Gabriel Knight, Gray Matter) and it's supposed to be releasing for Linux soon.

I am really excited to get back into Albion Online after they do the player-wipe, and the next few updates sound massive.

I recently covered Solar Division and while I liked most of what it had to offer, the game was just too easy. The developers agreed with me and they have not only balanced some tower types, they have also introduced difficulty levels.

Do you love twin stick shooters with good soundtracks? How about rescuing weird space creatures? Well Dr. Spacezoo might be what you need.

An action platformer MMO isn't something you see very often, but StarBreak hopes to pull it off. It's free to play too, so you have nothing to lose by trying it out.

Distance was a surprise hit with me when I picked it up and it's really pleasing to see it get some big updates. The "Creativity Update" was released yesterday and I've checked it out.

I am not usually a fan of speedrunning or platformers, but SEUM: Speedrunners from Hell not only sounds good it looks awesome too. I can already hear the frustration brewing in me at failing so much in it.

Infinium Strike is a pretty damn interesting looking space action and strategy game. I like the mix of styles the game has and it will include a proper campaign, sold!
