The trailer just made me think a simple gameplay montage would have sufficed and actually communicated things i might want to know about the game.

Do you have small children? If so, check "It's Spring Again", an educational indie game about the seasons

Quoting: AnxiousInfusionAwesome, another title to flood your victims friends with during Steam sales. I must have gifted Secret of the Magic Crystal at least a dozen times now.
It's the best gift game ever.

Some ♥♥♥♥♥♥ gave me this game as a joke but jokes on him I met the love of my life, took care of her when she needed me, forced her to fornicate and produce offspring for my own twisted pleasure, and then sold her off and used to proceeds to buy a new love and start all over.

I need help.

LSD - not even once.

This style reminds me of Beautiful Katamari which makes me very happy.

I dont think it's ready for me to buy it but I think I'll keep an eye on it.

The Linux version of Arma 3 is set to continue on, and Arma 3 plans to go 64bit

I've always wondered what Arma played like -- Full Controller support lacking is a big deal for me too.

I mean is it like Battlefield, CoD, PlanetScape, Halo, CS:GO or what -- at the $40 price tag I have to know more what I'm getting than just go on a whim and throw 10$ at a game and hope its good.

OMG these timers are so helpful -- I just am reading my morning linux news as is my custom and I now know that a steam will be on soon - thank you again.

So much news lately to keep up with, the only problem I'm having is deciding what I want to buy.

Quoting: The CaptainThank you all so much for your support, folks! This is so awesome!

Quoting: ElectricPrismI'm not sure if I can discern if it has full controller support
Currently, driving fully supports controllers and other peripherals (one player managed to hook up a steering wheel to it). As of right now, building does not work with a controller yet. It's on our roadmap, but it'll likely be a few weeks before we get to implement it. The same goes for cloud save (although, currently there's not much that needs saving).
That's fantastic that my X360 controller sounds like it'll be plug and play, great.

The Steam Cloud thing is just prefered - my only other real question probably would be - is there single-player? like computer generated map progression?

Sometimes I really just like to chill and play vs AI even if they do become predictable in games. I liked the video & I'm so happy it doesn't follow movie trailer layout where it cuts to black.

I find that so annoying these days

I'm thinking of buying this buy I want to make sure it's fun.

Yes this has gotten my attention more than most marketing tactics and I'm okay with that because I know that I'm in control and no one will manipulate me into making a decision I don't choose myself.

How does the game play? I would like to hear if its like anything else and see if it fits a niche for me --

From the steam page I'm not sure if I can discern if it has full controller support - I nearly always only buy games with full controller support as I really am collecting games for the full-screen big picture experience.

Also - looking for Steam Cloud saves, however Split Screen multiplayer is a HUGE selling point as I'm collecting games to play with friends on my steam machine in person.

Mad Max released for Linux, port report and review available

I'm thinking I might buy this.

I'm running MESA-git, i7-6700k with a RX 480 -- I was wondering if anyone with similar specs has a frame-rate? Intel CPU is important IMO to make sure it's not CPU-bound.
