That's excellent news!
Interestingly, the Feral radar is showing the "Depth Charge" game coming sooner than Mad Max...

I only noticed there were any problems last night, followed almost immediately by an email from Liam and a new server this morning. That's an amazing turnaround! :-)

The trailer makes it look nothing like a turn-based strategy.

It runs at 7-11 fps (opening scene in the storm) on my Geforce 330M on the 340.96 driver (Core i7 laptop though) at 1280x800 in a window. No graphics corruption that I can see. Interestingly, changing details from low through medium to high seems to have no impact on framerate (maybe a frame less). Considering what type of game it is, I'd say it's marginally playable ;-)
SC Controller, the open source driver and GUI for the Steam Controller is making lovely progress

Quoting: GuestIt really wouldn't be a good thing if you put in regular alkaline batteries.Quoting: nattydreadAwesome this looks fantastic.It doesn't? I thought it did have that feature... :(
I love the steam controller so far but some things really annoy me: like why can't it recharge its AA batteries from USB?

Oooh, I loved this game. I'm pretty sure it's not aged well. :-) I have the disc for it somewhere, I wonder if I can find it...
What have you been playing on Linux recently and what do you think about it?

I have been trying to play some Stasis, but it's currently too broken to take it seriously. The atmosphere is excellent, I'm really looking forward to having a functional build.
Other than that the PS4 has been taking up my spare time, but I won't talk about that. :-)

Quoting: ArehandoroI remember hating the FMVs in 2 (the young guy GK was in stark contrast to Tim Curry's voice) and 3 was just bland. I liked them all, more or less, but I think 1 was the best of the lot.Quoting: damarrinThe first Gabriel Knight was one of my best point-and-click experiences. Jane Jensen's games went downhill after that, but I'm still hoping for a fun time. I already have this on GOG, got it in a surprise sale where they were giving out random extra games, hope the Linux version gets added there, too.Well... Gabriel Knight 2 was better than the first one and Gabriel Knight 3 had one of the best 3D ideas for graphic adventures I remember. The story and puzzles a bit worse than the others though. Gray Matter went downhill, I agree, although still enjoyable.
