After a mishap losing code, the dev of Exodemon has recovered some making a Linux build possible
7 Aug 2019 at 6:07 pm UTC

The dev also seems to be selling it on Itch. There's also an old demo that runs on Linux still available.

I'm sensing a similar sort of whimsy to this that we previously saw in Undertale. Wonder if the devs are fans?

Quoting: DamonLinuxPLIt was great for me for the first two weeks. Now bores me.
You can also see a slight decrease in the number of players. A slight decline, but nevertheless recently played at the top of day about 90 thousand players. Now it's 60 thousand.
It's also the height of the summer in the northern hemisphere, so that may have an effect. Although it's not surprising that there'd be an initial wave of people trying it out that end up deciding it's not their thing, given it's F2P.

Any word on if there'll be a bit content update with the full release?

Can't say I'm a fan of this ultra zoomed out view. The actual visible area, at maximum, seems to be a quarter of the screen or less, meaning that not only is a huge amount of what's on-screen irrelevant to your immediate situation, but it makes everything that is relevant extremely tiny, even fullscreened.

Looking at the trailer without fullscreening, all I can tell that's going on is "there's a map and this is where you're character is", but almost nothing else.

Looks like Valve are developing another new game, something to do with "Citadel"

Quoting: Purple Library GuyThe title looks redundant but it actually isn't. I can envision sequels like "Space Rabbits at Sea" or "Space Rabbits: European Vacation".

While I agree that on a “consumer”-oriented distro nobody should ever have to install from source, I can't understand the attitude that refuses to learn. You might find it useful or interesting in the future.
Dude, I used to run Slackware. I know all about building from source. Back then, and on the RedHat 6 series before it, that's all you could do. It was a pain in the ass and I hated every time I had to do it. A good third of the time, problems cropped up that I had to call a more Linux-savvy friend to come and fix it, an imposition he didn't mind but I always felt bad about anyway.

The very last thing I want to do is go back to those days. So I have every sympathy for someone who refuses to for their own reasons. "Useful or interesting" is for techie hobbyists, and I'm happy to leave it to them.
