In before Android support questions:
Running Windows apps on x86 Android, which already works quite well even though they seem to have refocussed on x86 chrome books lately.

Looks very much like a non-mobile graphics version of Battlevoid Harbinger

Thus it might be quite good ;)

Anyone managed to install the 32bit version via PlayOnLinux? It works for 64bit, but for 32bit it complaints that the file could not be found, even though it shows up in the selection just fine.

So this arena mode is DOTA like? I always thought that would have been the killer feature on release day :)

hmm doesn't look very DOTA like after all...

Uebergame, a free and open source shooter has a new release

Should be noted that this is a one-man project build on top of the open-source Torque3D engine ( torque3d.org ).

It's a pretty interesting start of a FOSS game, and once all the new rendering features for Torque3D 4.0 are implemented, it should also look quite a lot better.

The beautiful space combat game 'EVERSPACE' finally lands on Linux in an unofficial form

For those wondering about fullscreen and getting rid of the mouse offset:
Real fullscreen works, but you have to hit the little arrow left to the actual button that says "windowed". It gives you three options: windowed, windowed fullscreen and fullscreen. The last gets rid of the mouse offset in the menues.

Nice game so far... and given the good graphics, not that demanding either.

Hmm, procedurally generated maps? Might sound good on paper, but I am a bit sceptically if it actually plays well in PvP.

Sounds awesome indeed, but their last game was quite medicore... I guess it would be good to have it funded, but I am not sure if I want to invest in it personally.

Major update of the open source FPS 'Unvanquished' due soon

I hope they also worked on Xonotic compatibility that was discussed a long while ago. I think the modding improvements point that way, but I am not sure if the QuakeC interpreter made it in yet.
