SFB Games to bring Tangle Tower to Linux post-launch if there's enough demand

I had crackling sound recently in another game and could fix them by playing around with default-fragments and default-fragment-size-msec in /etc/pulse/daemon.conf . Obviously does not help with hotspots, though.

Quoting: yar4eDetective Grimoire is great game but at the same time it is very bad (are they test it at all?) port to Linux.. For me it's completely unplayable because of crackling sound and "unclickable" key places. Good news is it work great through Proton an i don't need to refund it because i wanted to support the talanted developers (but lazy testers:p).It worked flawlessly on my system (Debian Mostly-Stretch at this time).

Quoting: dpanterNot sure we have a choice. In the end, it always comes down to cost. I remember dedicated Phys-X cards... does anyone else?Absolutely. Well, theoretically, I've never actually seen one...
What have you been playing recently and what do you think about it?

I've been weak and have been using Proton for the first time, to play one of whitelisted games: The Room. I'm probably the last person interested in puzzle games to play this, but if I'm not (and you're inclined to using a whitelisted and platinum rated Proton game): Do it.
Now I'm back to the good side (native) and play the recently released point and click Guard Duty. I wouldn't rate it a great game, but I'm interested in what lies ahead in act II.

(You have to take the original number as reference for an increase, so it's 85/50(*fixed*) = 1.7 = 170% = 70% increase.)

Quoting: GuestHoly crap! Vulkan works perfectly (on NVIDIA at least, will soon test with AMD) and I'm getting an over 40% FPS improvement!!!!For the records, that's 70% increase!
OpenGL:
vsync on: 40 FPS
vsync off: 50 FPS
Vulkan:
vsync on: 60 FPS (monitor max Hz)
vsync off: 85 FPS
Good job Fun Pumps! :D

Seriously (and unfortunately):
It's dead.
It's all too obvious, but if you didn't do it yet,
don't let them talk you into preordering this box.
RIP, Atari. :(
I didn't actually own one of your great products decades ago,
but I still like your name and logo.

They explained that the pre-production Atari VCS units can run both Windows and Linux and that's about it right now.So they've built a little PC that can run Windows and Linux?!? They're just wild and crazy...!

I imagined Stadia would produce Linux game programming experienced developers - now it consumes them... :-(
Well, I guess in the end it might be both.

Quoting: Purple Library GuyHuh. Potentially interesting I guess, but my "replacement for Steam" for FOSS games is called "My distro's repository" and the "software manager" GUI thing.I don't know software managers to put software into own categories or such. (I think there are some to at least site a screenshot?)
