Heh, I also thought of Ensign 1 when I read that.

Thanks for digging these up Zerothis! I might do another round-up post with Kickstarter projects.

(liam have covered FTL previously I think?)

Here's another (pre-Kickstarter) interesting one to keep an eye on. Dead State, a zombie RPG. It's being co-developed by DoubleBear and Iron Tower Studios. Iron Tower is the guys doing Age of Decadence, that's supposedly coming out for Linux, so it's just possible that Dead State could too:

Yeah, that did seem rather excessive. Shame really, as the game looks interesting.

Added a couple of sentences, not sure I can write much more about the game itself, I only spent a couple of minutes with it so far.

Their email support was quite fast to reply, even if it was just to say "we'll look into that".

Quoting: "Cheeseness, post: 3759, member: 122"I haven't had any problems with Shank or SMB myself.

Assuming you've already identified, subscribed to and submitted any extra details you might have to relevant bugs on the icculus.org bugzilla, it wouldn't hurt to shoot an email to the [email protected] as well (including relevant bug numbers). Maybe they can get Icculus' attention (or one of the other people working on maintaining the Humble Bundle ports).
Yep, done and done.

The most frustrating is the Anomaly people. The forum seems to only be monitored by some sort of helpdesk person, with no way of contacting the devs directly. If nothing else it might be possible to sweet-talk someone with an @intel.com address to contact them. Hopefully that's harder to ignore than just mere customers...

These are mostly problems with the later bundles, yes. I got a reply now that they're looking into the problem with ZB2. I also asked about proper updates for Shank and SMB.

But I am leery about Team Meat. They do not seem to really care about us.
Yeah, though I'm not sure if it's bad of HIB to support not-so-Linux-friendly devs, or a good idea as there wouldn't have been much chance of a port otherwise? :confused:
