Hopefully this makes it's way to GOG for us poor suckers who bought the game there. So far, Hinterland has made good on their promise to keep it up to date.

Quoting: scaineCTRL has to be the most bottom-left key on a keyboard, or I'm out.
This, this, this! I love the keys, and the feel of my Lenovo keyboard, but whatever jackass decided that the Function key should be the bottom-left key needs a kick in the ass. If the Function and Ctrl key were flipped, it would be a near perfect laptop.

We Happy Few for Linux and Mac being refunded, to get an "unofficial" beta

While I'm definitely disappointed, this is about as well as it could be handled.

I'm getting my money back and I get to keep the game.

GOG users are getting shorted, because the Linux beta won't show up at GOG, but, it sounds like using Proton / WINE is the better way anyways.

Of course, no mention of GOG on the infographic - because they abandoned GOG.

I'm curious to see whether I'll get episode 3 at GOG or not - the claimed that they would keep the game up to date at GOG.

I played a bit of Space Mercs and Rings of Saturn, but most of my time went to The Witcher 3 using Proton.

Survival game Stranded Deep has an absolutely huge update out now

Quoting: Ehvis
Quoting: Para-Glidingstrange game, it is badly rated on steam due it seems to bugs, no translation? Some of you own this gam and how does it compare to a minecraft for teenagers? ty for your returns
It is a strange game and I don't think it compares at all. Building takes a lot of work and resources. To get those, you need to move around to other islands as well. Make something better to sail with because the initial life raft is a disaster. Dive to get loot from underwater wrecks. And deal with hostile wild life. Diving to deeper wrecks creates quite a bit of tension due to sharks and lack of visibility. All in all a different experience.
That sounds amazing! On the wishlist it goes...

Bought it. Playing it. Not very good at it :)

Lot's of fun though.

Super stylish naval combat and adventure game "Abandon Ship" now has a Linux beta

That's unfortunate timing. Yesterday, it was just on sale for 40% off, and I waffled about buying it. I've been burned too many times by the "coming to Linux" promise, so I passed on it.
