I have played Starsector a lot but it ultimately disapoint me because of its rhythm ( Spaceship can't go at 5km/h ! ).
I have then played a itch.io visual novel ( https://perverteer.itch.io/tales-from-the-unending-void [External Link] ) that have a very nice space op adventure vibe. The banner is uninspiring but adventure is thrilling and inter character relationship is rich.
Itch really should have more coverage here.

A few dozens of hour into the game I can make a more in depth review of this game.
Game is nice except for one main flaw : the rhythm. Game is too grindy, trip are too slow even on x2 mode and battle are far too slow due to a cautious AI and low precision of the weapon and low speed and maneuverability of the ships. Even by offering myself 1 milion credit by 5 hour grinding (via save edit) and using the mod to make battle far faster the game is still very slow.
That's a pity because beside that, the game could have been the Mount & Blade in space we deserve. What SPAZ 2 should have been. The simulation, exploration and mission are nice and interesting.
But the combat lack the speed of M&B, SPAZ or Reassembly and the depth of turn by turn combat like with the Sunrider franchise.
I hope some mod will solve thoose issues, this game has a lot of potential

I bought the game. It's nice but I don't like the combat. They are slow and I can't understand how it works. I just take command of a ship that don't go in combat, let the AI play and go doing something else as they are not skipable

As far as I now, mostly in phone. Either Librem 5 or pinephone use a mali GPU (forgot which one). Maybe some other card as well

Quoting: legluondunetI enjoyed playing the first opus: a video game with such quality: humor, reflexion, action, ambiance...Not as good but still good
Is this second opus as good as first one?

Quoting: axelbSure. But transitioning from "no tux, no bucks" to "no tux, bucks" will take a few year more for me before feeling natural.Quoting: amataiI'm still shy about using proton too extensively).Imo proton and vk are among the best things (if not the best) that could happen (and happened) to linux gaming in the past years. I recently started playing kc:d via steam, which uses proton. I have 50+ hours now and i cant complain. It just works great (for me). I love it.

Witch store did you use
Maybe it's a statistic to do yearly during the Gaming On Linux award. Aside from which is your favorite game of the year asking how many games do you purchase this year and in which store.
Quoting: Liam Dawe"Which store did you use last year" maybe ? Or in the last 3 month. Or In "Which store would you consider buying game". The updating stuff makes the wording very important.Quoting: amataiCould you do store statistics again ? That was very interesting and that would let see the big trend. I'm very curious about the relative result of GoG vs Steam and Steam vs 3rd market store and how many Linux User use Epic + Wine (still have not dare doing that despite the free games, I'm still shy about using proton too extensively).Not opposed to it but it would need careful wording, since this is something that people don't update every month.
Happy to take suggestions.

I had a revelation when I understand that Minetest is not a game but an open source engine like Godot or Ogre. I'm looking forward the creation of STR, racing game, FPS and all on Minetest
