More sorting options is all I need.

An maybe the ability to browse, download and listen to soundtracks without downloading the whole game.

The dev of "Marble It Up!" had intriguing words to say about the native vs Steam Play argument for a Linux version

SteamPlay is absolutely fantastic and allowed me to play lots of non-Linux games hassle-free, which honestly is the best thing since I switched from Amiga to a Linux PC in 1999 (because I never got to play all those Windows games until now :D). But I'm still hesitant to buy games that don't have *official* Linux support. Sure, I can buy, test and refund if it doesn't run (I've done it multiple times, also for "native" titles) but that doesn't solve the question of *future* support. If the dev ships a Linux build, they sort of commit to fixing it if it stops working in the future. The same can't be said of titles relying on Proton for Linux support. So unless the dev steps up and actually commits to keeping their game playable with SteamPlay for Linux users, I'll continue to have doubts about purchasing their game.

I'd gladly test it locally with the kids (on SteamOS). The idea of local-time Scorched Tanks/Earth is hugely appealing. :-)

Despite the high price, the initial batch of Valve Index headsets have sold out on pre-orders

Now if only the test app [External Link] worked on Linux...

By the way, is valve index wireless? or does it at least have some accessory to make it wireless?

Hopefully it will make it to Steam despite their resolution.

KeeperRL had a rather game-changing update recently with the addition of Z-levels

I'm not so sure about adding the 3rd dimension. It didn't end well for Trine 3...

A third Shelter game has been announced, this time you're an elephant

Hopefully this time it works. I haven't been able to run Shelter 2 on SteamOS.
