Super Win The Game Releases Today For Linux

Quoting: subI don't want to sound cheap, but is it worth 12 EUR?
That seems to be quite a lot for these kind of games IMHO.
I really liked YHTWTG. But still ...
Well, considering you can get Borderlands 2 for less right now this is a tough question. However, 12€ is about what you have to pay for a 3D movie and SWTG probably will keep you entertained longer.

I gladly paid for this because I wanted to thank the developers for YHTWTG in the first place.

If you want cheap, get your free copy of XCOM: http://blog.playfire.com/2014/10/golden-joysticks-2014-vote-get-free-xcom.html [External Link]

Yhtwtg was a surprise to me when I found it about 2 month ago. Great game so this one was an instant preorder after I finished the fist game....

Do they actually give you a Steam key? I did not find that information anywhere on that page :/

A Message From John Byrne Of AMD & A Survey
26 Sep 2014 at 8:05 pm UTC

Quoting: lavegave it
5 stars for download (who can seriously fail at this)
4 stars for installation (it could be way easier, but that doesnt mean its not easy already)
Well, 1 star for each of those from me. It's just wrong having to download and install a driver at all. It's wrong to even have to know about a driver.

Right now only Intel gets it right. Having used an Intel-graphics-only system besides an NVidia system for the past two years it is obvious that the NVidia system had a lot more problems which at times actually required me to boot from a rescue media and revert some updates in order to get the system to even boot again. No such probelems with Intel!

It is so sad that AMD does not just focus on the open driver. We all know that Valve loves open drivers. Together they could build the best possible Steam machine...

"It will not have general support of Linux, but will support the SteamOS Linux when that version becomes available." What a bunch of bull...

Commander Keen in Keen Dreams Has Been Open Sourced

Quoting: liamdaweI hope it has stood up to the test of time, as not many do
I loved the Keen games in the early 90s but playing them today without the nostalgic background will probably not be very enjoyable :)

If you want to give the games a try there's http://clonekeenplus.sourceforge.net/ [External Link] btw which works great.

DoubleFine Ceasing Spacebase DF-9 Development, Releasing Code For Modders

Quoting: FrasierCraneUnfortunately another proof that Tim Schafer and his company just can't stay on time and budget during development. I doubt we will be seeing Act 2 of Broken Age either this year.
Unfortunately I have to agree...
