Return to Monkey Island gets a Linux Beta version

Quoting: subHope it supports cross-platform cloud saves.

Such a great game!
Now that you mention it, so do I! I'm fairly far in the game and would hate to have to restart once I install the Linux version.
Go tell Bungie you want Destiny 2 on Steam Deck / Linux

As a rule, I'm not so keen on the begging. As these things go, usually there's a huge outcry which gives the game publisher unreasonable expectations and then support is dropped a couple of years later because actual players never materialise.

It only serves to reinforce the general opinion that Linux isn't worth investing in. I hope I'm wrong.

They actually confirmed somewhere the "OS of choice" will include a Linux or two? The choice could be between Windows home and pro or whatever they're called now.
Rebel Galaxy Outlaw and some reflection on Steam Reviews

All the Amnesia games were walking sims IIRC, even before the term was coined.

As for Steam reviews, they are about as worthwhile as user reviews on metacritic or some such. A lot of people try to put in the work, but a lot are barely literate and often try to push the agenda of the hour.

Whaaa, an actual reason to play something on my actual PC? Insanity.
Kena: Bridge of Spirits gets Steam Deck Verified ahead of the Steam release

Kena is great fun. Nothing groundbreaking, but very competent all around. Awesome Souls-like boss combat, too, especially on higher difficulty.
