Quadrilateral Cowboy, a cyberpunk heist adventure is coming to Linux in September

There's that, and there's also the fact that it is easier to correct bugs found on only "one" plateform than on multiple. And after the windows version is stable enough, he can move to linux. If it's only a few weeks late, it's ok.

I hope that the previous games from blendo will also be ported to linux, since they are really great.

Torchlight now available DRM free for Linux on the Humble Store

The build available in my humble library is still from 2013. The windows and Mac versions don't have any date attached to them, so I don't know if they are newer build.

And it's not in my steam list of linux games. So I don't think they have changed anything to the linux version.

Human Resource Machine has an open beta for Linux

Just bought the game and it is awesome. It appeared directly on my linux games list, so I hope it is counted as a linux sell.

Anyway, it works great on Fedora 22. It is indeed easier thant TIS-100, but I didn't find TIS that hard neither. It is not like SpaceChem in wich I'm still stuck in the middle of the game.

I find the description confusing. Can someone confirm that it is possible to download the games? And, is it possible to play with a gamepad?

Valve Is Trolling Us With A New Half-Life 3 Leak

HL3 exclusive to SteamOS, even for a short period of time would be counter-productive. Cutting 99% of the user base to push a new "plateform" would be very very poorly received. Look like anything turns into a shitstorm on the internet. That would leave to millions of messages on forums or social networks calling to boycott Steam and SteamOS. Look how the exclusivity of the last Tomb Raider has only gave bad buzz toward Microsoft.

I can hardly imagine a Windows user trying SteamOS just to play HL3, knowing that it would be released at some point for Windows. It would just make him more hostile toward SteamOS.

Valve can only push SteamOS by making more user friendly than Windows, not by using exclusives.

3D Sandbox Puzzler 'Infinifactory' Officially Released For Linux

I can't say how much I love this game. It is clearly awesome. And I found the difficulty curve much more manageable than in SpaceChem. So, if like me, you never finished it, you can at least hope to go much much further in Infinifactory.

The fact that it is in 3D give much more room to build anything. So if you have any idea on how to solve a level, you can probably build it.

It even gave me new ideas for SpaceChem and I was able to advance a few levels.

TIS-100 is awesomely awesome. I've only got a few puzzles left, but it's very fun. I also recommend SpaceChem and Infinifactory for those who have not tried them yet.

Assembly Language Puzzle Game 'TIS-100' In Early Access On Steam

I'm a huge fan of Spacechem and Infinifactory, so we I discovered that they had a new game and it was on linux, it was an instant buy. And, as expected, the game is awesome.
