I hadn't looked Into Deadwood before, since I'm not a fan of zombie games, but that looks very interesting.

I didn't know that was an option. That makes the game a lot more appealing to me.

That's unfortunate. Pid is a great game, but it's an odd mix of exploration and hard and hectic challenges that make it difficult to explore. The boss fights are some of the most unique and interesting I've experienced in a game.

Thanks for the detailed information, DrMcCoy and Shmerl.

Quoting: FurorI have problems installing the deb package of Loom and The Dig, it says ok but it didn't install anything. Anyone more have this problem?

I think it's because of the EULA. QApt doesn't work for me either (I'm assuming that's what you're using, since you're on Kubuntu too). Using dpkg works though:

sudo dpkg -i gog_loom_1.0.0.5.deb

and

sudo dpkg -i gog_the_dig_1.0.0.5.deb

Alternatively, you can extract the games from the packages.

Thanks for mentioning that. I didn't realize it was there. Their homepage is awful and doesn't mention where you can buy the game, other than on Steam. I tried to find it on all the stores I could think of when I wrote the article, but I forgot about IndieGameStand.

Quoting: FrasierCraneI could only bring the inventory up with Tab

Thanks; I hadn't noticed that, but that makes it playable at least. Tab also brings up the menu at the top, so that it's possible to exit the game a bit more cleanly (you still have to force close the window I think).

I got a reply from the devs on Twitter, and they're apparently looking into these issues:

Note that this is just a game feel build meant to gather feedback to make the controls feel just right. As a demo it feels very barren, but I'm sure we'll get a build further down the line better suited to generate excitement for the upcoming game.

Quoting: GuestThanks for the test flesk, so it seems this was a rushed port from a tablet version…

It would seem like it, but the game actually released for Windows long before it was available for iOS, and later Android. The game runs on Java, and I think it's likely that they've just messed up a bit in packaging the game for Linux.

Reminds me of Gunman Clive, which unfortunately isn't available for Linux.

Thanks for clarifying. That sounds like a neat feature. The Last Tinker has something similar, but that's a very different kind of game.
