Russian territories? Is it a some kind of trolling?
There are CIS (Commonwealth of Independent States), but CIS doesn't include Baltic countries (which are in EU now), Georgia since 2008 (not a state of US, but a state somewhere in Caucasus mountains), some countries in grey zone, such as Pridnestrovie, Abhazia, South Alania-Osetia...
About the prices. Prices in CIS region, usually calculates as half (50%) of US prices, shows and pay out in US dollars. With one exception - Russia, they have their own currency in Steam (Russian Rubles), and independent prices. Usually, their ruble prices even lower, than CIS-prices (especially, since economical crisis in Russia in late-2014). For example, if you wanna be in caterogy "under 300 rubles", it may be $5 USD today or $4.50 tomorrow, because price is fixed in their national currency, and their currency is very volatile because of War in Ukraine, and oil prices.

Steam machines sold more expensive, than their Windows counterparts. Alienware Alpha with Windows costs $50 lesss, than Alienware Steam machine (as an example).
I think it's was a sabotage.
They never included SteamOS as an OS in Linux OS statistics. For years!
Yes, I gratitude for pushing, but it's half-force pushing. Since VR releases in Steam, they almost forgotten all this stuff, because there are no VR game for, which works in Linux (outta of box)

PerambuLit: A Choose Your Own Audio Story (Wired has an article about it)

Quoting: GBeeThis could make for a very interesting mobile game, something you can play on the bus or train without continually staring at a screen while frantically jabbing and swiping like an idiot. It's definitely an interesting concept, audio interactive fiction - has no-one really tried it before?Well, it's could be good to try the game on mobile devices. Porting for Android is easy enough. There are only one project I can recall:

Shadow of Mordor on AMD Ryzen CPU suffers from a performance hit due to non-optimal thread scheduling

There are nothing new under the Moon.
I have read a few days ago on another site about a game, which works only with first 4 CPU threads.
It's fine, if you have Celeron, Pentium, Core i3 or even Core i5. But if you have Core i7, where each two logical threads is one physical core (same as Core i3), so the game works with 4 logical threads and two physical cores. So, Core i7 has a performance about Core i3 (where there are just a 2 physical cores) or about a half from Core i5 (where the game uses 4 physical cores).

In this case I will publish my game somewhere else (I have a developer account in Microsoft App Store, humble bundle), but any other platform means almost zero sales.

Quoting: lucifertdarkI listen to a lot of audio books so I'm intrigued enough to buy it if it ever gets released.There are a chance, that Steam Greenlight will be shut down before my game gets enough voices.

Quoting: ShmerlYeah performance is abysmal for me with anything but lowest settings (RX480). Looks like it's using Unity 5.4.2f2, so it's OpenGL only (no Vulkan yet). Hopefully they'll switch to Vulkan at some point (for which they need Unity 5.6).OpenGL or not, that's not normal. A lot of games on GNU\Linux works fine enough (10% FPS drop from Windows counterpart is acceptable IMO).

Message to the devels: please add a "Sniper" type Mech that can only fire from long distance. Maybe a one that has a shape like two legs and a big cannon over it.

I was interested in clarify, 'cause I have the same videocard and FHD monitor... Could you check this scene with FHD resolution with HIGH and Medium settings?
I could't check myself until I finally arrive home (it will not be soon enough though).

Quoting: liamdaweThank you.Quoting: AresoNot clear for me, 53 FPS with HIGH settings on which resolution? 1280*720 or 1920*1080?1280x720 as that is what I was directly comparing it to from the previous remark. I have however added that in to be absolutely clear.
