Quoting: GuestPlatformers... so hard to make (just) a Top 5...
I'm sure i'm missing something here; in no particular order:
Turrican (all of them - Amiga), Leander (Amiga),james pond - Robocod (Amiga), New Zeland story (Arcade) ,Toki (Arcade), and to stay "in topic", Gost'n Goblins (Arcade), Wonderboy (Arcade)

Or if you're proper old school... ;-)

Citadel, Quest, Plan B/Plan B II, Shark (forgotten classic!), Codename: Droid etc.

Really old school: Jumpman, Miner 2049er, Bonty Bob Strikes Back, Mr. Robot and the Robot Factory.

I loved creating my own levels in Mr. Robot.

I'd like to add Auf Wiedersehen Monty (the first game I bought with my own cash), Jet Set Willy, Cauldron II and Zorro to the C-64 list. Also Rick Dangerous II, Superfrog and Zool for the Amiga.

Quoting: TheSHEEEPDo you have any reason for your attitude or is this just the usual "capitalism bad!" rhetoric with no logic behind it whatsoever?

It would hardly be logical of him to waste his time replying to someone so explicitly dismissive of his views.

Ohhh, I touched a sore spot there, it seems.

I am explicitly dismissive of attitudes without reason behind them, for sure.
And I asked if that was the case for him or if he maybe wanted to add some argument to his statement. Because "I just hate X" isn't much to go on, really. We aren't talking about someone not liking broccoli here.

It's called a discussion, in which further explanations are sometimes required and requested.
Are you new to this?

You're just itching for a fight, aren't you? :D

Just a tip: "Are you as stupid as everyone else who thinks that way?" isn't the invitation to civil discourse you think it is.

Quoting: pete910I would but my GPU is not listed :(
Vega VII

I know it's based on a Vega chip, but you probably mean the Radeon VII. That one is listed.

I actually got to update my info for the first time in ages. Thanks for the reminder.

Quoting: zkarj

error while loading shared libraries: libsteam_api.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Sounds like you didn't install all the necessary libraries from the repo. That shared library should be in the sub-directory of the Steam game. Try using a command line terminal to start the game (usually there is a script start.sh) after running the steam client, and that should show any relevant error messages about missing libraries.
Also make sure all the symlinks in steam client directory are not broken, per https://github.com/ValveSoftware/steam-for-linux/issues/5101 [External Link]

Actually, this is easy to check on steamdb [External Link]. In this case the library is right there in the base directory of the game and there's no start script.

Quoting: Comandante ÑoñardoIs very normal that a native Linux game doesn't want to work after an update...
This [External Link] game I purchased for my mom is a good example :><:

Of course it's not normal. Have you reported that one to the developer?

Quoting: PhlebiacThe minimum pledge to get the game is a little higher than I would normally want to pledge, but I really enjoyed the demo, so I'm in.

I really don't like Kickstarter at all, but same here. Also, based on my interactions with Nicola while helping test the demo on Linux, I'm pretty confident he won't let us down.

Too bad it's a roguelite. I'd be all over it otherwise.

Quoting: ElectricPrismI can compile the kernel in minuets

Now that would be interesting to see.

'see'? No, hear! A minuet is for the ears; e.g., this one [External Link].

A minuet is composed for and named after a type of dance. :)
