Quoting: titiYes its set to zero. I set it to 1 and tried, but no luck. After my attempt it was set to 0 again like this:
<unity_prefs version_major="1" version_minor="1">
<pref name="FIRST_RUN" type="int">0</pref>
<pref name="LAST_CAR_TYPE" type="string">RlJUZXN0Q2Fy</pref>
<pref name="Screenmanager Fullscreen mode" type="int">1</pref>
<pref name="Screenmanager Resolution Height" type="int">1</pref>
<pref name="Screenmanager Resolution Use Native" type="int">0</pref>
<pref name="Screenmanager Resolution Width" type="int">1</pref>
<pref name="UnitySelectMonitor" type="int">0</pref>
<pref name="unity.cloud_userid" type="string">ZmM4MTk1M2I0MDEyZDQzNDliYzk4NDI0MmE2NWU3YmE=</pref>
<pref name="unity.player_sessionid" type="string">NTQxNDEyMzk0NDk4MTkzNTMyNw==</pref>
</unity_prefs>

It looks like the game is working in general, but I see no graphics. Just light blue screen on start ( with music ) and you can hear that you toggle through the options. If you select something the color changes.

Here's mine for example:

<pref name="Screenmanager Fullscreen mode" type="int">1</pref>
<pref name="Screenmanager Is Fullscreen mode" type="int">1</pref>
<pref name="Screenmanager Resolution Height" type="int">1080</pref>
<pref name="Screenmanager Resolution Use Native" type="int">1</pref>
<pref name="Screenmanager Resolution Width" type="int">1920</pref>

Also, you can set Steam launch options for the game, something like:

-screen-height 1080 -screen-width 1920

Quoting: titiThe game does not run for me, I just get a light blue screen and music is playing. Do I need any workarounds ?
( geforce 960, nvidia 396.54, ryzen 1600, ubuntu-mate 16.04 )

That's odd, no issues for me, perhaps their Unity update has caught an issue I don't see since I already have a resolution set from when I played it before.

Have a look in the config file and see what resolution is set? Found here:
/home/username/.config/unity3d/SuperSmashingGreatGames/Foreveracers/prefs

Might be that it's set to zero (an issue I've seen a few times).

Let me know and I can feed it back to the developer.

Quoting: elmapul"With that in mind they noted 27 bugs squashed. These include issues found with Final Fantasy XI, Undertale
and others. "
we have undertale for linux, why people are playing the windows version? sigh

Wine seeks for perfect compability with all Windows applications, so even Linux native games are tested. Also keep in mind that Wine does not only exist for Linux.

This. Any game that has issues in Wine, even a native Linux game will likely mean other games will have the same issues. In this case, the issue affecting Undertale also affected Final Fantasy XI. So in short: Fixing any game, will probably help other games.

Surprising how often people don't get this, happy to clear it up :)

I agree the inflation of port announcements when Steam Machines were announced has probably been the cause of what people are seeing as a drop. However, I really don't see 2018 as somehow being worse than 2017.

Obviously, this kind of thing is very subjective. For me personally, it was a good year. Lots of games released or entered Early Access that I was excited about. It all depends on what titles you want and I imagine the people disappointed this year will continue to be until Linux really gains some actual traction.

Quoting: GuestThanks for the info! Will check them out.

But my wish for Xmas/New Year: Don't use DRM tag on DRM-free games.....

Ho ho ho that was a wee bit of a mess up. Fixed :)

Quoting: BeamboomI'm the first to feel sorry for saying so, but to be honest I feel this is one of the weaker years in Linux gaming so far. It feels like we're taken quite a few steps back to the first years of Steam, with mostly indie titles coming our way.
Let's just say it like it is: Without Feral we would have had practically nothing in the pipeline now. Like we did back then.

So this is not something to be too cheerful about. Rather we should worry if the top was already reached.
Maybe Steam Play in fact is the only way forward after all. Forget games developed for our platform, forget ports even, we now need to emulate our way to the bigger games.

I am genuinely curious, what about 2017 was bigger and better for you?
