Quoting: Quote from AndiHi,

i backed the game on kickstarter and the first alpha was working on my gentoo 64 bit linux, but since the last two versions it sopped working. Did you succed to start it?
I got into the menu and mouseover is working but no reaction to a mouseclick. What's even more sad, that i don't get any responses from the developer :/
Run it in terminal, what happens?

I'm not taking them that seriously, I just wanted to bring light to it and give my thoughts on it, since I think Crowdfunding and Early Access are key parts to PC gaming staying alive.

Steam's Hardware Survey For December, Looking Promising

Quoting: Quote from AoC"The Other category may contain a few of the smaller Linux distro's like Fedora, Gentoo and Arch for example. "

Arch gets counted as "Linux 64 bit" at least on my Arch boxes. I have heard some users have their Arch boxes set to identify themselves as Arch but that doesn't seem to be the norm. I don't think calling them smaller distros is the way that should be worded either. Less represented distros.. there that sounds better.
Thanks for the tips, I will correct my language for future articles.

Leadwerks 3.1 In Beta With Early Linux Builds Available
27 December 2013 at 8:14 pm UTC

Just FYI I did get an email from a Leadwerks rep to ask me to remove posts like those. I refused since no post so far has done more than try to explain differences between the versions.

Take from that what you will, but it does seem like they are trying to silence critics.

GOL comments are free speech, until it's attacking someone.
