Gah, looks like something I'd definitely play. Shame I'm so broke lately... :confused:

The Humble Bundle Mojam!
20 Feb 2012 at 12:44 am UTC

I don't think so. One of the main requirements for a game to be in the HiB is that it has to work on Windows, Mac and Linux.
Besides, as far as I'm aware of, the Oxeye game is made in Lua which means cross-platforming isn't an issue.

Tomes of Mephistopheles updates

From my experience, last time I wrote a whole GDD for an in-development game and it turned out that, although they found some of it interesting, it was entirely not what they were aiming for. Thus I'd rather abstain from giving suggestions without having a general idea what is planned and what is not. However, I will mention that there's definitely a lot of room for aesthetic improvement - obviously... :rolleyes:

Quoting: AlexVSharpWill the game be available on Desura since us Linux users can not use Steam?
Quoting: Double Fine and 2 Player ProductionsWe're still working out what additional platforms we will be able to reach. We should have news shortly though!
...let's wait and see what will happen. :rolleyes:

It's good to know that Voxatron is still pushing forward. However, I'd still like to know what's up with the Desura inclusion... :(

"UFO: Alien Invasion" developers' interview
8 Feb 2012 at 12:06 am UTC

It may seem quiet from time to time, but they are there. The IRC is their main form of communication really - that's how I got in touch with 'em for the interview.
That being said, I am considering making a Desura group dedicated to helping new people get into open-source projects. It's still in the planning faze, some mention was made in [URL='http://www.desura.com/members/alexvsharp/blogs/a-helper-without-a-clue']an old blog of mine[/URL]; thought I'd mention it.
