Quoting: AkienI played this a lot on Android a few years back, it's one of the best open source games available on F-droid :)

Might be worth mentioning in the article BTW, it's a fully open source game: https://github.com/00-Evan/shattered-pixel-dungeon [External Link] (and originally a fork of Pixel Dungeon, also open source: https://github.com/watabou/pixel-dungeon [External Link]).

Same here, i've discovered this (great) game on F-Droid too ! :grin:

Quoting: AsciiWolfOne of the good things about Stadia was that it could potentially bring new native Linux ports (that could also be made available for regular GNU/Linux systems outside of Stadia). And for Stadia users, it was also much better because these ports were optimised for Stadia - basically a custom console-like ports. Google is killing all of this now and bringing a GeForce Now-like experience to Stadia (but you will have to buy the games again, unlike GeForce Now). I understand their reasons (they are trying to save a dying platform which Stadia sadly is), but this is not a good thing at all, at least in my opinion.

"One of the good things about Stadia was that it could potentially bring new native Linux ports"

That's what I thought, but if we look behind, how many games Stadia has bring to the Linux market ?
99% of the Stadia games remains like this.. a potential.. but without real effect.
Publishers just see Stadia as an opportunity to have the ultimate DRM, nothing more.

Quoting: dziadulewiczNice but the installation...

Linux Instructions

1. Create a folder darkmod in your home directory.
2. Download the Linux version of the tdm_installer.linux64.zip and extract it to your darkmod folder.
3. Make tdm_installer.linux64 executable: chmod +x tdm_installer.linux64
4. Run tdm_installer with default settings and wait for the game to install.
5. Start The Dark Mod using thedarkmod.x64 in your darkmod folder and begin playing!

WTH. I mean, can't there just be a snap or a flatpak for it already? :dizzy:

Honestly, and without any offense, creating a folder, downloading a file, adding some rights on a file and launch an installer are pretty trivial operations (on any OS).
Nobody forces you to learn code or create some sort of package, but you can if you want to enhance the process.
All you need to do to play is basically what you do pretty much all the time when using an OS.

But if you really want :

INSTALL_PATH=~/Games/TheDarkMod/
mkdir -p $INSTALL_PATH
cd $INSTALL_PATH
wget https://update.thedarkmod.com/zipsync/tdm_installer.linux64.zip [External Link]
unzip tdm_installer.linux64.zip && rm tdm_installer.linux64.zip
chmod +x tdm_installer.linux64
./tdm_installer.linux64

Quoting: jordicomaUnsupported? This has more sense than on spanish "No compatibles" (no compatible), as many of these games works on my linux, even some are native.

Maybe unsupported only means that you do not have any support from the publisher ?
I agree not compatible is terrible.
The problem is that in this list, you have both : not compatibles, and compatibles but unsupported.

Quoting: CybolicThis sounds like something that could also be implemented with bspwm, so I'll be sure to keep an eye on what tweaks they're doing.

Here's a quick version for anyone interested. Thanks to mmstick for correcting me on the logic.
bspwm-scheduler.sh [External Link]

Thanks, seems interesting.
I see it uses bspc command, does it require bspwm ? or it will work under mutter with bscp command installed ?

It very much depends on bspwm. If there's another tool that continuously prints out the WID when the focused window changes, it could be adapted, but I don't know of any.

Maybe "xprop -spy -root _NET_ACTIVE_WINDOW" ?

Wow, the browser version really doesn't work for me. Incredibly slow and I can only attack in two directions. No real indication of how the controls work.

Strange, i have played for about 2 hours yesterday without any problem.

Only 2,39€, and you can test (a full but unupdated version for a long time ago) here : https://poncle.itch.io/vampire-survivors [External Link] :wink:

On paid version, you have one more level, bug fixes, new loots etc etc...

EDIT:

If you dont want to wait, it works very well under Proton 6.3-8 with the following startup command: PROTON_LOG=1 %command%

EDIT 31/02/2022:

No Linux build for now, but in the news of 30/01/2022, we could see:

"""
Mac and Linux builds
They're currently being QAd, so please expect them to drop sometime soon!

Steam Deck
Yes ✔
"""
.

In the last news from 05/02/2022:

"Linux version
Still having some trouble with the native version, should hopefully need just a couple more days, but I said the same thing last week so... "

(but the MAC version is out now, so we could be confident).
