The game is -50% on Steam until the 9th, and that's from a base price of 12.49€. It's 19.90€ on GOG and Humble. That's quite a difference.

Quoting: pingvinThe only thing I want when commenting about nVidia or AMD is to show that opinion ofFixed it for you. Well, not the grammar but the fact that anyone's opinion is nothing but an opinion. Having owned both AMD and Nvidia hardware recently, my own opinion is that both are perfectly fine for a Linux gamer these days. AMD obviously wins on the driver support / Linux-friendliness front simply because of their investment in Mesa and the FOSS drivers, but Nvidia's hardware does still offer more performance per watt/buck, if that's your main concern. In day-to-day desktop/gaming use there's very little difference for most Linux users. New games tend to work with both, and keeping the drivers updated is just about as easy on both sides of the fence.AMDfanboys doesn't need to be understood as the true.
Quoting: pingvinAfter reading comments on Linux gaming forums, some people can decide that buying AMD is better choice and it's doing a lot of damage to Linux OS.Buying AMD hardware is a perfectly sensible choice for a Linux gamer these days. As a nice bonus it shows that we are willing to support companies that play nice and participate in the open source process.
Supergiant Games now have Bastion, Transistor and Pyre up on itch.io

Quoting: HadBabitsI never finished Bastion and Transistor. They both have beautiful craft in them, but for some reason they were the kind of game that when I put down I just never felt like picking back up. Love Pyre, though.I guess I might need to give Pyre a chance after all. I also lost interest in both Bastion and Transistor before finishing, even though I enjoyed the art and can't really pinpoint any particular faults in the gameplay either.

population user base. Maybe you don't often happen to run Steam when the survey is being conducted during the first few days of any given month? (I've only ever gotten it on the first day of a month.) Maybe you're just unlucky? Could be anything.

Quoting: Purple Library GuyMaybe every geographical area gets a set amount, relative to theQuoting: tuubiI believe I've gotten it once since Steam came to Linux. Perhaps twice.Quoting: devnullWhich looks quite odd not only because of the version but I don't get popups about it. Maybe 2 means opted out? Considering I don't use windows at all that could be at least a year of not being counted.I got it just yesterday. I tend to get it maybe one to three times per year.

No idea what the different types mean.
By the way, I'm not convinced our using Linux has anything to do with how often we're selected to participate. I know it seems so from all the anecdotal evidence we hear on GOL, but that could be confirmation bias. I don't see why Valve would want to intentionally skew the results, especially to make the Linux user base seem smaller than it is. We'll just have to accept that we're a small minority on steam.

Wishlisted on Steam. The premise is perfect for a comedy adventure, and the art is just beautiful.
Charlotte, you might want to update the Kickstarter link at the top of the itch.io page. It still leads to the old KS campaign.

But enough nitpicking. I'm always up for another adventure (game). It's already on my Steam wishlist, but I might get it on Itch instead.

interactive story-based adventure gameI'm always baffled when developers find it necessary to point out that their game is interactive. Would it be a game if it wasn't?

Quoting: GuestI'd say the official 2011 Census of India is hard to beat when it comes to sources. Gabber messed up the name of the language, but his number seems to check out, barring any drastic changes in the last eight years since that census was conducted. (Your site uses the census data as well, but they only count first language speakers, which probably explains the lower number.)Quoting: tuubiThis is the best source i know: https://www.ethnologue.com/statistics/size [External Link]Quoting: GuestThey probably meant Hindi, which is the most widely spoken language in India by a wide margin. English is a distant second in total number of speakers, but only a measly 0.02% of the population speak it as their first language. Source [External Link].Quoting: gabberLol, hindustani has not that much speakers, there is lots of languages in India and most of them just use english.Quoting: GuestGotta hate when they don't support the second most speaked language, spanish.
