So all this time I played beta version :D
Mac and Linux versions for Reus! We’ve eliminated crashes and improved performance. Reus should now run great on Mac and Linux.
I didn't know it ran bad. I think beta run pretty god. Now I need to test what's improved :)

Quoting: TcheyThey should open the beta to all, if they really want feedback and improvement.
It's not as simple as "just open it up". That can swarm and overwhelm developers.
Agree developers do not need 100 reports on same bug from 100 people at the same time.

The only real roadblock so far for ensuring a smooth port has been making sure the OpenGL platform allows our heavily PhysX based engine to run the way we want it too
Can someone enlighten me what connection OpenGL has with PhysX?

First game had very many jokes about Russian culture which usually are lost in translation so I do not recommend any of these games without Russian language knowledge.

I had "disk write error" with Stardew Waley but as I remembered the cause was case sensitivity it was looking steamapps folder but my system had SteamApps folder so I symlinked it and all worked. I guess here can be same case but only with different folder.

Knights of Pen & Paper +1 Edition is now available on GOG with Linux support

Quoting: MyeulCI am a bit curious about this game, I tried it, but never figured out how we were supposed to play it.
Is it for playing with friends? Like a RPG but computer assisted? In that case the game master doesn't have enough planning or freedom, I think.
Or is it for playing alone and choosing your enemies, etc? In that case, wo_hoo. It would just be boring, I think.

So, I am genuinely puzzled, can someone enlighten me?
You chose enemies you fight after you complete all quests it becomes boring because only interesting part was reading game masters comments and pop cultural references. At the end game becomes grind fest that's why I did not finish it.
