Sublevel Zero, A First-person Roguelike Six-degree-of-freedom Shooter Released For SteamOS & Linux
20 Nov 2015 at 10:44 pm UTC

Just bought it and it's working solidly for me (Mint 17, i5, nvidia gtx670). I loved Descent back in the day and especially Descent 2 and this I liked the look of more than the rival Descent Underground. My only issues so far are v-sync doesn't work so my GPU fans go crazy; volumetric lights cause glowing orbs and occasionally white-out the screen. As others have reported the mouse sensitivity/acceleration is 'sluggish' but I'll play with the sliders. I'm hoping to counter the v-sync issue with Nvidia application profile settings. A Dualshock 4 works really well apart from being difficult to get used to on the default layout. No crashes at all.

EDIT: Setting v-sync OFF solves it. As someone said on the Steam discussion board, the toggle's effect seems to be reversed.

Steam store didn't show Linux as supported but having read here I clicked on install and it works perfectly.

Linux Mint 17, i5 CPU, GTX670, Nvidia drivers. Mostly maxed out settings get a good 65+ FPS in game.

I loved it on PS4 but now I'll be using on Linux only as it looks better, sounds better, controls better, has more features. Fantastic. I still love my PS4 by the way! :D
