Sweet! DQ is my favourite tower defense game, looking forward to playing it again. DQ2 is looking good, apparently it's planned for release the end of the year.

Just confirming, that's 3:30PM EST?

Edit: Oh wait, it's EDT right now in Ontario, isn't it? So that means a 4 hour difference, meaning it's...wait...still 3:30? I'M SO CONFUSED!!

Last Dream RPG now available for Linux

That first screenshot isn't just reminiscent of the earlier Final Fantasy games, it's almost the same background as the forest battles in Final Fantasy VI. Slight differences, but it's awfully close all the same.

Wasteland 2: Director's Cut Released, Looking Good For Linux

Like Keyrock, I only had one crash, and that was on autoloading a previous save after my squad died, on account of I suck. Only other bit I didn't care for was how there seemed to be stutter when my squad was moving as a unit.

Hyperspace Pinball Released For Linux, It's Quite Cool

A good, native pinball game is one thing that's been sadly missing all along for Linux, and it's about time something like this has come along. I do with some more orthodox pinball games that aren't so frenetic would get made/ported, though.

Wow, that's seriously hard on the eyes. Everything is so neon and fuzzy, it's hard to make out what's important and what's background. Nice water reflections, though.

It looks like a much more industrial version of Monument Valley, but with that no-shading style that Antichamber uses. Have to keep an eye on it when it comes out.

GOL Asks: What Game Are You Looking Forward To Playing?
18 Sep 2015 at 3:35 pm UTC

I've been looking forward to playing Banished for ages, ever since a friend bought it for me from my wishlist last Xmas. But seeing as the last we heard about the Linux port was May 1, I'm getting a little skeptical that it'll ever happen.

As for upcoming games, I'm definitely waiting on Last Life and Hyper Light Drifter. Very different games, but both look equally promising.
