Quoting: Xpandermad max however was pretty bad in places, it ran yeah like 70+ fps on the open world, but in some camps, looking at specific angles framerates were down to 19-25 fps only which sucked pretty bad and my gpu utilization dropped on those places which indicates some sort of cpu bottleneck or something weird happening.

It was a CPU bottleneck in the OpenGL backend according to Feral.

Quoting: iplaygameswearingatuxNow it starts at $1.

Still not a bad price if you like puzzle platformers.

As a neutral observer, I can't help but point out that the ACLU is, in my opinion, not "a good cause."

You don't seem very neutral. ;)

Quoting: liamdaweSounds like a bug report they need on their github :)

I doubt a bug report would lower those processing fees. At least that's what the message blames if you try to pay less than $0.50.

That's my point, it shouldn't* list something they are unable to process.

True. They shouldn't allow developers to set such a low price if they can't handle it. I'll try to remember to file that report.

Quoting: tuubiIt's PWYW, as long as you P at least 50 cents. :)

Sure the game is worth it and the profit goes to a good cause. Still, the one cent price feels like a joke when itch doesn't accept payments of less than fifty.

Eric the Unready was really funny, that's true. I haven't played a pure text adventure in years, but this will be hard to pass up.

I will definitely buy this as soon as I can. And any future additions to the series as well.

Quoting: LeopardDid you know that Bethesda already ported it for Nintendo Switch,which use Vulkan?

Does it mean the Switch can be an incentive to develop Linux ports?

The Switch is an incentive to use Vulkan. Vulkan might not be an incentive to develop for Linux, but surely it lowers the bar.

Quoting: Whitewolfe80No the way porting works is Square pay Feral a fee to port the game sometimes it can tie the amount to the profits from the Linux version.

Porters have different business models. Feral actually publish every port they do, so it's not quite as simple as a bit of contract work. We have no idea how these deals are negotiated and what kind of financial agreements they make. Why would we even care, as long as they keep porting great games to Linux?
