Thanks for the Takara Cards mention! :)
(main dev here)

Takara Cards is a unique space sci-fi deckbuilding tactical strategy game

Quoting: Purple Library GuyFor a game that seems to be full of combat, the trailer has a very relaxed feel.
I'm the main Dev in the game!

The game's combat is actually quite relaxing!
The objective is to clear the board of enemies in as few turns as possible.

It's like a tactical-puzzle card kinda game.

EVERSPACE 2 out now, devs focus on Proton for Linux - Steam Deck optimizations planned

No linux version is a shame... :/

But did they improve the ship's controls over the first one? Mainly using gamepad... I played on PS4 and hated the flight controls.

The latest Godot Engine showreel is an impressive look at upcoming games

Beautiful games in there!
I'm the designer and programmer of Takara cards and 95% of it is made with open source tools (on mint!) :)

Valve have tweaked Steam's mighty algorithms and fixed some bugs with a new store update out

Looking at the comments (on the Steam official post) and my early graphs (I'm a dev), looks like the "more like this" section is WAY worse now... :(

Quoting: PatolaHope they add more content so that it doesn't get as repetitive. We need weird games!
We are already thinking of ways to alleviate and improve it! :)
But we did the game thinking about a very short experience (hence the low price).

Talking point: Leaving user reviews for Linux games can really help a developer

As a game dev working ON linux all I can say is: YES! It REALLY helps!!
So please, leave a review! A short and concise one is just fine!

No Man's Sky has been shown to work rather well in Wine on Linux

Quoting: JarnoYeah, it runs good on wine and even free demo edition (pirated) works fine.
To ppl who is even thinking about linux version, no, there is NOT going to be native linux version because game uses phyreengine.
Only "hope" is wrapper-port but I wouldn't keep my breath while waiting...
Looking on the wiki page list of games made with that engine there are some games that have been ported (like Bound by Flame):

So... it's not impossible. :]

I have been playing x-rebirth and it's awesome! One of my favorites games ever!
