Quoting: LeopardPrime didn't become available until 2016 though, while Bumblebee has been around since at least 2011. For half a decade it was the only (good) option for utilizing dual graphics on Linux, and that's worth something. It was always a hassle to set up and tended to break with driver upgrades, so I'm glad there are better, official options now for those of us still stuck with Optimus laptops.Quoting: sigzNo? Bumblebee didn't help for anything. Prime was a better solution , at least it was reliable.Quoting: LeopardBumblebee is thrash and not necessary.Don't say that... bumblebee helped a lot in the past when there was no other solutions..
While Bumblebee was not.

I've played a couple of hours of the beta version on Linux, and they've put a lot of effort into it, so I feel confident that we will indeed see a same day release.

I played this for a couple of hours yesterday on Itch.io and Steam (buying it on the former gives you a key to the latter), and found it wonderful. Lots of fun exploration and fetch quests, and the height building and unlocking of "jump pads" reminded me a little of Grow Home, which I also adored.
A Short Hike, a very sweet looking casual adventure game will be coming to Linux

Quoting: PatolaMercadolivre, Sethi3D, GTMax3D, Voolt and many other online shops, there are several good brands. And don't forget to read my book [External Link].Are there any 3D printers that work better than others on Linux?

Stadia could be very good news for Feral, Aspyr, et al. now that everyone and their Linux gaming grandma are playing Windows games with Steam Play. I imagine that it could be good business for them to eg. offer a one-time cut (and an optional support agreement) to port AAA games to Stadia, and additionally make an agreement to publish Linux and Mac versions on other store fronts for a cut of the sales, as they usually do.

Quoting: ArehandoroHold on... what about the first game? Is that also being remastered?As far as I recall, the first game was never much of a hit, and the sequel can easily be played as a stand-alone game.
In any case, happy for this announcement and will get it for sure!

One of the main reasons I've been excited about crowdfunding in the past is that I've seen it as a way to help developers break free from the traditional Windows "monopoly", and publish their games on Linux. As such, I don't think a backer exclusive Linux build is a satisfying compensation, since the game will still be unavailable to all other potential Linux customers. I backed this game on Fig, and was looking forward to it, but now I'm considering asking for a refund, as I did with Outer Wilds.
