27 Aug 2015 at 3:09 pm UTC

Quoting: ZeloxSo when the beta is out, if u are allowed to stream it. I would love to watch ^^.

Unity Editor Lands An Experimental Build For Game Developers On Linux
26 Aug 2015 at 12:08 pm UTC

Quoting: mr-egg
Quoting: TakVulkan will almost certainly be supported, once there is a Vulkan to support. ;-)
They said not. But maybe the position has changed ?
They never said they wouldn't, but it will come later. The API hasn't even been released yet, can't expect them to support it.

Quoting: ElectricPrismWaiting for this to go on sale, been waiting 6 months will wait 6 more. Certainly a wish list item.
Honestly, it's well worth the full price.

Teeworlds, The Free & Open Source 2D Battle Game Is Now On Steam For Linux
25 Aug 2015 at 10:31 am UTC

Quoting: sigzyou can play borderless fullscreen window to avoid secondary monitor blanking
The problem I find with that is that MATE desktop panels overlap the window, so it would only really work for me on the monitor I don't want it on :(

Hearthlands Is Exactly The Type Of City-builder A Lazy Sunday Needs For Linux Gamers
24 Aug 2015 at 9:00 pm UTC

Quoting: KelsI've had my eye on this for quite a while, pretty much since the Towns debacle. This is one of the games that was recommended as a possible successor that looked promising. Certainly it's got a much better dev involved.
The difference here is that Hearthlands is at an already playable state, and the UI doesn't suck!

Quoting: wvstolzingThis thing was on Jim Sterling's channel. Never thought I'd see it here.
Oh yeah, I love Jim Sterling, someone who points out all the junk, here's his video on this game which is hilarious as usual:

Planetary Annihilation: TITANS, Some Thoughts On The New Standalone Expansion & The Controversy
22 Aug 2015 at 10:38 am UTC

Quoting: JuliusFor the controversy, I think your are missing a major point Liam. One of the main reason why people complain is because Uber E. is trying to "game" steam's review system and conveniently getting rid of well deserved negative reviews of the original deeply flawed release (and even to this date the game is still more of an buggy beta with lots of place holder content than a proper release).
I just don't see that, as they probably knew they would still get beef from people.

I totally get what you mean ElectricPrism, I guess I'm only comfortable with the zoom levels due to playing so much of the games it is inspired from.

The round maps is an issue though, again I get that. For me i'm still getting used to it after 50+ hours in the game. I remember playing it before it had their version of a minimap, the game within a game thing. It was even harder to get to grips back then.
