Developer Of City Builder 'Banished' Breaks Silence On The Ports, Looking Good

The developer is slowly but surely working towards Linux (and Mac) support, that much is clear from the last few posts on their blog. Seems like it's a one man effort and requires a whole lot of changes to their engine, which explains the slow progress.

Quoting: CybaCowboyMaybe I'm missing something, but that's not what I'd call encouraging...Yes, you are missing something. ;)

Quoting: kurrosWe know that most of its benefits can also be achieved with Vulkan, but that is going to be even less common than OpenGL engines as long as OS X has no intention of supporting it in favor of Metal.We know all of it's benefits can be achieved with Vulkan. There's no technical reason to prefer DX12. And I don't see how Apple's support of neither of these APIs if somehow a point in Microsoft's favour.

Seems really cool. Hope the game is as much fun as it sounds. I'll be sure to pick this up, as soon as I clear my backlog (and workload) a bit.

Looks great. Won't go to the top of my wishlist but excellent news for fans of soiled pants.
Intel AMD and GPUs are not supported.
and I'm not kidding you just how much this game scares when me.Liam's so scared he has lost control of his keyboard.

No interest in 2d roguelikes, but Pittman does know his platformers. Zero is definitely worth checking out (when it's out).
@sub: I almost always disable CRT simulation effects in these games. Don't see the point. I guess I'm just not that nostalgic for the inferior technology of my childhood years. Many old games were/are great fun, but not because of the crappy screens we had back then.

Quoting: Mountain ManHave you ready any EULA before? They're actually not much different now than they were 10-years ago. The only real difference is that here in the digital age, developers and publishers actually have a means of enforcing the EULA.And every single one of these "means" the corporations have been given has been a loss for us consumers. This rapid erosion of consumer rights is unsettling for many of us Europeans at least.

Quoting: oldrocker99Personally, I have no problem with Steam's checking (on some games. not all) to see if you actually bought the game.There are other problems with DRM, but that's a whole another discussion. Anyway, the problem I have with Steam and others of its kin is the idea of games as a service. I use Steam daily, but I feel much better buying an actual copy of a game from the likes of GOG rather than the mere right to play it (and some extra social crap I don't want). That said, Valve has done a lot of good for us Linux Gamers, and to a (significantly) lesser extent for the larger Linux desktop community as a whole.

Quoting: SirBubblesI know that the Witcher 3 is on the GamingOnLinux's release schedule for November, but is that actually confirmed?It's been marketed as a future SteamOS title, but I don't remember anything resembling an official announcement with regards to the release date. I guess official Steam Machines launch date is as good a guess as any, if a bit optimistic.
