The latest Humble Monthly seems like a good deal for Linux + Steam Play (two early unlocks)

I don't like the loot box commercial model.

It's good value theoretically, but buying blind means most of the games aren't interesting to me. So I'll only buy if the early unlocks seem like stuff I'd really be into.

That's a very bittersweet Google+ post.

Go read it people, and thank the developer who gave us 40+ natively-supported and well-tested titles!

Just wait a few days for it to be packaged in the PPA.

I usually check for release availability on the CLI:

I've hit a wall in a few games: a literal wall in DeadCore (well, several of them, hurtling towards me), a nest of warpers with a shaman in Shadow Warrior, and the Absolution in Freedom Planet. I like those games, obviously, but it's frustrating.

Any opinion about Coffin Dodgers vs BlazeRush?

Developers Of Strategy Game Halfway Show Linux Sales & Support Requests

That's about 80 support requests total (39 on Mac, 24 on Linux).
I remember the KOTOR II launch and the bug with the restored content mod, a game breaking bug that generated enough activity to be covered here but it was a single problem (shared by Mac and Linux IIRC) and there was enough signal that it could get diagnosed and fixed really quickly (it was an issue with some kind of case mangled paths).

Quoting: subI really liked Wizorb.

BTW, is there a way to get a Steam key for Wizorb via HIB6?
Now that it is on Steam, it would be great to add it to my library
but back then it was only available as stand-alone download.
It's on your download page, the key also activates BIT.TRIP.RUNNER, Gratuitous Space Battles and Jamestown.
