This Is the Police spin-off strategy game Rebel Cops has released with Linux support
21 Sep 2019 at 10:23 am UTC

Quoting: TcheyRebel Cops is nice, but lacks some option (camera rotation, remove auto-tracking camera on action, easy zoom in action etc), and i find it extremely difficult ! Didn't manage yet to win the first mission after the tutorial, the one with the train and the timer. Also having only 3 saves per mission, having turn based quite slow paced, make the redoing again and again when you are as bad as i am, painful.
They're addressing...

They patched a "railroad mission" with two extra turns, did you use this?

GTA: San Andreas is being remade (unofficially) in Unity and it supports Linux

Quoting: DesumThis is not a new game being developed. This is a new engine for an old game. And Unity won't be worked on forever.
How do you know?
And why would we care? It's not like the binaries would suddenly be going to vanish...

Quoting: legluondunetLook very nice, I will follow that game and hope it will be available natively on Linux.
I'm sure it will. The author didn't stop working on it until the demo worked fine on Linux.

Quoting: Patolathere is no discussion
Quoting: PatolaBy the way, weren't you who said the comments should not even had been opened? That seems to prove exactly what I said, if it depended on you there was still another discussion cancelled. Fortunately was Liam who decided on this and so far it is still open.
Patola, aren't you a university graduate/academic (or do I remember this wrong)?
We are in a discussion you stated could not happen.

Quoting: SirLootALotI personally don't like rms at all. He is very vocal with his political opinions and I disagree with many of them. Everybody else would have been fired years ago for what he said about necrophilia
Seriously?!? :O

Quoting: SchattenspiegelYay another witch hunt!
Why do I always have to wonder if the hunters really feel themselves morally driven to burn people at the stake or if they just use this tool of public assassination to further their own immoral agendas?
There does not seem to be much evolution in that department from the earliest stages of recorded history. does there?
Well, one obvious difference is that nobody has been actually set on fire and died.
Of course he is exactly that.
Why are you writing obvious nonsense?

You are aware of the difference of life and death, right?

I also wonder which "immoral agendas" you're talking about.
