On a side note:
Please update this list, if there is a promised port missing!
[List of unreleased ports [GOL Wiki]](https://www.gamingonlinux.com/crowdfunding/index.php/Unreleased_Ports)
That'll help a lot to keep track on the promises of developers/publishers.
(And please don't forget to add a link to the source of the information.)

BUT:
I'd be very, very, VERY sad if it still uses Adobe AIR!

Quoting: NisheSamorost3 [External Link] is planned for 2015. Sadly there isn't much information about it yet, the teaser that was released only states "on the PC [such an ambiguous term], Mac, iOS and Android". All their last games were also released on Linux, so I have good hope for it! :)Great games by Amanita Design, indeed.

Dying Light Major Patch Released, Still Abysmal On Linux

If it just runs okayish on that rig, no wonder most of the users are facing performance issues.

Quoting: n30p1r4t3This game honestly ran fine for me. Was it perfect? No. But it was defiantly playable. In fact, I beat the story with some 25ish hours of gameplay on record. Still one of the best games on Linux right now.LOL - I consider that a serious high end setup.
My Settings:
Everything On Max except view distance.
Specs:
i5 4690K @ 4.0Ghz
16GB 1866Mhz Ram
GTX 980 (Latest Drivers)
SteamOS

Quoting: FlutterRageJust saw that it's currently on sale on Steam (-40%), but still: no Tux icon, no money from me..Yeah, that's bugging me as well...
But nice to know they're working full time on it.
Dying Light Patch Released, Look Ma No Blur

I guess it would run SPF on my HD 7950 and Phenom II X4 940. :D

Quoting: OrkultusNow runs on my AMD Phenom 2 x6 1100T in Linux !! yay!... running decently ok on LOW settings with a Geforce GTX 550 Ti 2GB.Glad it's not available here yet.

That user might have found something concerning "Shadows of Mordor" and that page

For Payday 2 we know that there could be a Linux port in the works
https://www.gamingonlinux.com/articles/payday-2-could-see-a-linux-release-in-future-a-developer-noted.3976
And Borderlands 2: The Pre-Sequel is already released for Linux/SteamOS.
So the games on this picture probably aren't random.

Quoting: subOk, let's assume it is Tolkien related.I just stumbled across this post (Nov. 2014) in the Steam community:
How about "Shadow of Mordor"?
Released in September 2014 and published by Warner Brothers.
They must already have business relations to WB as at least the
LEGO games which Feral ported to Mac are also published by WB.

Quoting: GuestSamsai's commentQuoting: GuestTo be clear, Techland had nothing to do with the Dead Island Linux port.Just like Dying Light was "not coming to Linux" according to Techland… I don’t have a link but someone found out that the three persons responsible for the Dead Island Linux version (listed in the credits) are/were Techland employees.

Neither is Aspyr a shining knight nor is Dying Light Techland's first Linux game (see Dead Island)."supporting broken games will only get us more broken games"This is techlands first linux release, so of course it is going to be buggy (especially considering its state on other platforms).
Be not confused by the shining knights at aspyr and feral, those guys are exceptional.
Dying Light Patch Released, Our Thoughts On It, Still Terrible

Doesn't surprise me.
Let's be honest, it's an so-called AAA game which has been in development for a very long time and now it turns out that it's performing abysmal on all platforms: WHO thinks there was just a switch missing to turn on a massive FPS boost?
It's safe to assume this is a structural issue of the engine and improving the performance will most likely be a tremendously difficult work taking a long time. If they'll take that costly challenge at all.
IMHO there's nothing significantly to expect from a patch arriving only several days after release.

Dying Light Released For Linux, Some Thoughts, You May Want To Wait
27 Jan 2015 at 1:51 pm UTC
Not quite a new CPU, yet still powerful enough
judging from the Windows version.
The port is just crap and apparently Aspyr doesn't have time
to improve on the "older" ports. Getting new ports out seems to
have higher priority.
I guess it's both; AMD's Catalyst is not as good as Nvidia's proprietary driver
AND/BUT companies don't care enough to improve performance on AMD GPU's.
After all - as I said many times - it got far too easy to get away blaming AMD and
don't invest further time on the issues.
It seems almost everyone will immediately buy the argument that it's AMD's fault.
Easy standing for the developers, isn't it?
Has anyone with an AMD GPU tried Dying Light?

Quoting: PublicNuisanceIt's a quad core 940 BE.Quoting: LapinoplThat is some sloppy work if they don't support AMD video cards. I would say his Phenom II may have more to do with it. Does he mean a Phenom II dual core or a Phenom II quad core ? Big difference.Borderlands 2 still has abysmal performance on my rig.HD 7950
Phenom II + Radeon HD 7950.
Runs perfectly smooth on Win7, though (same machine)
Here's your problem... I don't think it's even officially supported by aspyr (AMD that is)
