Quoting: TobiSGDI don't get it. The trailer looks like turn-based combat, the Steam page says real-time combat. Liam, please enlighten me!Kinda blurrs the lines.

Quoting: titiAnd I hope all this money does not put pressure on them so that we get new features in windows only one day :S:I would be surprised, given how Blender is used on Linux in big productions. Was big news years ago. Disney, Pixar and so on all use it.

Quoting: GuestHoly crap! Vulkan works perfectly (on NVIDIA at least, will soon test with AMD) and I'm getting an over 40% FPS improvement!!!!Yeah, it works now and doesn't seem pink. For me though, the game repeatedly sucks all my RAM away on the first few loads and locks my PC up. Experimental for a reason eh.
OpenGL:
vsync on: 40 FPS
vsync off: 50 FPS
Vulkan:
vsync on: 60 FPS (monitor max Hz)
vsync off: 85 FPS
Good job Fun Pumps! :D

Update: A few days before release Linux was removed from Steam. On their Discord, they said it was a mix of "technical difficulties" and "the previous entries didn't do well enough on Linux". A real shame.

Quoting: subSorry, but if we have any self respect, a game that only works on GPUs by one company should be boycotted these days. (In this case after years!)They're bound by the proprietary middleware Coherent UI and they have no real control over it. They've been trying to get it working for some time. They didn't just choose to not support AMD, they can't just flick a "support AMD GPU" switch.
On Windows nobody would give the developer a pass on that, right?

Update: They have reverted the Linux version to use Coherent UI 2.5.9.3. This now at least enables it to run with NVIDIA as good as normal. Nice to see a quick fix. Hopefully the next time it will get a little more testing.
The Swords of Ditto is a much better and more interesting game with Mormo's Curse

Quoting: bacattaI got it in the last humble bundle and can't run it natively. Only with Proton, and i'm not alone: https://steamcommunity.com/app/619780/discussions/0/1628538005520458693/ [External Link]Interesting. Does the libsteam_api.so exist in the game's folder anywhere?

Quoting: ShabbyX*sigh* let me be a lot more specific then: What is the latest on getting the code accepted into Chromium/Chrome to enable it the same as it is on Windows?Quoting: Liam DaweThe latest is what I just said?Quoting: ShabbyXIronically, the disadvantage of Linux with Stadia is that chrome doesn't support hardware acceleration in video decoding, so Linux will have a (slightly) higher latency than windows...What's the latest on this, I'm a bit out of touch since I use Firefox.
