Quoting: GuppyApparently I already bought this game on steam, wonder if I will ever get over the whole "OMG they ported a game to Linux *buy*"..
It's on my stack as well. I thought I need to buy Mad Max on day one, but didn't yet touch Lara... X)

Mad Max to release on 20th of October for Linux & SteamOS, being ported by Feral Interactive

Like Edwin said, Feral are the publisher for all of their games. That alone should have told you it was not Feral being paid off, likely the other way around. Which is another reason I have a lot of respect for what Feral do. They seem to be the ones actively going to these publishers and developers for the ports (a lot of these ports are games people have highly requested too, like this one!).
So the requestinator might be (at least a little bit) more than just some social media fun...?

That's how all Feral games work.
So you're solely paid by game copy sells and don't get money from the studio/original publisher?

Shadow Warrior 2 may not come to Linux after all, it's getting a bit confusing

Quoting: webcreatureHi,
I found this news on gamestar.de today. Its from yesterday evening.

"Linux and Mac versions are upcoming. No support at launch."

Sounded good on first sight, but it seems to be a copy of this old list:

Quoting: oddHa, ha... It was me who asked the question on Twitch...
Cool - thanks!

Quoting: oddBut my gut-feeling tells me, that we will see a Linux port in the future. It seemed that Pawel even wasn't aware of the existing port of the first game. He also said something strange: "First on PC, Steam and Gog..." ... PC, Steam and Gog?!
I thought about writing it down as well for the article, but as it's not directly related to Linux, I didn't. I would have written it as "First in PC (Steam and GoG), then...". Sounds like a suitable answer to me, as people often want to know if it comes on GoG as well.

The answer "Linux version - no, I don't think so.", if listened to, sounded quite firm to me. But I'm still not sure if he had got a clue about everything he answered. :) What's more disturbing to me is the Linux version vanishing from the stores.

Quoting: Comandante oardoFeral already has been paid out by Warner, so We don't have to give a single cent to them...
Unless that Feral acquired the publishing rights for Mac and Linux...
... or they at least get a share per sold copy, which seemed to be the case for the past releases.

Wasteland 3 now on Fig ready to be funded, nearly hit the goal already

Quoting: killyouThey've released ~14 games so far and they need money for the development of another one? Really?
Sorry, that doesn't make sense. Making ~14 games cost ~14 times much money.

Quoting: rkfgThis is not exactly true. Backers have only given $483k as of now and $1700k come from Fig itself. This is an unusual scheme for crowdfunding.
D'oh!

Found the info: It's the little ⓘ next to funding progress bar.

Quoting: m2mg2Seems like someone that has no idea what is going on talking about things they have no business talking about.
Hm. But a month ago, they also had listed in the Humble Store. Seems to me like something happened since then.
