It is a native port. Man with a nickname stalkerg spends tons of time to port it to SDL2. Original version has some code on ASM to render graphics and ugly-looking C code. He also said this game was a milestone in the Russian gamedev community. He takes source code from the devs and ports it to Linux/FreeBSD/etc. One of the problems was with a rights on a game, it was held by Buka, who does nothing with it. stalkerg wrote about it on Russian IT-resource, habrahabr. He also appears on Vangers' Steam Community Hub: http://steamcommunity.com/app/264080/discussions/0/558754259779272031 [External Link]

Also, world of Vangers is the same world that appears in another famous game from K-D Lab, Perimeter: http://store.steampowered.com/app/289440/?snr=1_7_7_151_150_1 [External Link] It will not be ported probably, because rights on it still held by Buka.

Both Vangers and Perimeter has a huge community in Russia, these game are legendary.

Quoting: ApopasYeah, but besides the bundles they don't support Linux.

It is sad, but their games uses ags engine, port of which works fine for me (https://github.com/adventuregamestudio/ags [External Link]). I hope they will announce Linux support someday.

I was amazed by the fact they added Shivah. It is one of the few games from Wadjet Eye I didn't have at the moment. I like this guys, already preordered Blackwell Epiphany. So, bundle worth it at least for Shivah.

Broken Sword and Savant looks great for me too.

Wow, it is definitely overpriced. Few days ago developers of this game gives away free steam keys for linux users, I took one. I found graphics pretty, but gameplay is pretty unbalanced now. I can't solve the first level.
Gameplay is a mix of match 3 and 2048.
