Quoting: jordicomaI didn't know that Vulkan ES existed. I only know Opengl ES.
Yeah I think they might be mixing up their backends.

Quoting: denyasisFrom the description I think of Arcanum.
I kind of wish there was an option for turn-based combat, like in Arcanum.

The game looks beautiful though.

Quoting: OlliCAnybody knows which Mesa version includes this fix? I am on Fedora an waiting.:whistle:
Maybe 21.1, and 21.2 for sure ! :happy:
According to the discussion in their Gitlab, this fix is supposed to get a backport to the current stable branch as well, but as of now that has not happened. So the answer is, no current release includes this fix.

I actually expected something like this to be announced sooner after they were acquired by IGN.

In case anyone is interested, I just noticed that the latest stable Mesa in Kisak's PPA (21.0.3~kisak3) includes this fix.

Quoting: kaimanWould be playing Mutropolis, if it did run in fullscreen mode. Wonder what the issue is, since all the Daedalic adventures with a native Linux version worked fine, and those were also made with Visionaire.
This is a known bug in certain fairly recent releases of Visionaire. It was fixed a while back, but Mutropolis needs an engine upgrade.

Strong resemblance to Gunpoint [External Link] at first glance, but this is obviously not a blatant clone.

Bought it and played a bit.

First impressions: Just as fun and wacky as the first one, with some additional polish.
Time to get testing Ubuntu 21.04 ahead of release, plus Canonical loses another face

Quoting: Guestso i fully switched from xfce to gnome 40.
So, I guess for some DE's like XFCE, Budgie, and Cinnamon that the advent of a mature Wayland is going to be a really existential moment when they decide to become "legacy" DE's, pack it in, or invest the time, energy, and effort that KDE and Gnome have in working with Wayland.
The thing is, they won't have to invest as much time and effort as KDE and Gnome. They're much smaller projects than the big two, and they can make use of the code and documentation produced by those who went before. That's the beauty of Open Source.

For what it's worth, Xfce has a Wayland roadmap and it's being worked on. But slowly, as they always do due to very limited manpower. I don't imagine they'll reach that milestone any time soon.
