The game crashes if the quality is set to anything but the default.
Good otherwise.

Exodemon, assume the role of a scientist infected by demonic forces

Quoting: kuupu
Quoting: TheGZeusPlayed what they have on itch.io, and it's decent! The elevator level having no mid-level checkpoints is a bit brutal, and if there's supposed to be music it wasn't working, but the key binding (via the Unity launcher) actually works.
The lack of music was a bug and now we have checkpoints :)
Do you have a link to the fixed build? I checked itch.io and the dropbox link and there seems to be no change.
EDIT: Tried every link I could find :\

Quoting: LinasSo it's like sci-fi Ziggurat? That I can imagine getting into.
It's not procedurally-generated, though.

Moon Hunters co-op action RPG released for Linux, some thoughts
4 Aug 2016 at 8:43 pm UTC

Is this game solo-able?
A: I don't really go for multiplayer (especially online)
B: The place to which I'm moving only has satellite internet (data cap, high ping time)

I didn't look into Borderlands for quite some time because everyone talked about Co-Op, but when I eventually tried it, I prefer to play it solo!

The Signal From Tölva is the next game from Sir, You Are Being Hunted developers and Linux is likely

I really like the mechanics of "Sir..."
I just think it takes a bit long. Too many artifact thingies to find.

I wish I could have salvaged more from the latter bit of the 'cast.
I hope what's here is satisfactory, at least

Vikings – Wolves of Midgard Announced from Kalypso Media and Games Farm with Linux support

Quoting: darkszluf
Quoting: JuliusHmm, why didn't they re-use the VictorVran engine? That one worked really well and didn't have all the typical Unity issues/slowness :(
This is a completely new studio making it not Haemimont
Yeah, and Victor Vran is also Unity.
They tweaked the hell out of it, but yeah.

System Shock remake has blasted past the Linux stretch goal, officially coming to Linux

Quoting: c927776@TheGZeus: You win! Fuck 64bit software, fuck portable scripts, fuck software that can be ran on all distros, distros that are worth using must came with IA-16/32/64/MIPS/ALPHA/ARM/SPARC etc. runtime libraries why fucking not and fuck Wayland, 1984's X will be perfect forever.
Series of strawman arguments ahoy.

"Portable" scripts? No, you're arguing for using a less-capable scripting language. dash can do less than bash or csh. You don't understand scripting.

"...software that can be ran [sic] on all distros..." What are you even talking about? Even fat binaries can run into compatability issues. You don't understand libraries and apis/abis

"...must came [sic] with [list of architectures]" What? What does that have to do with anything? Who argued that? That wasn't even brought up.

'...fuck Wayland..." Yes. "1984's..." X11 was released in 1987, actually. "...will be perfect forever," certainly not. It's just that Wayland is a dead-end, because it relies on a subset of a legacy API

Funroll-Loops.

Sinner’s Sorrow, a grim looking action adventure is coming to Linux

I'm taking bets: Salt and Sanctuary with less 'web comic' art style.
