Steamdb is currently showing encrypted depots for MAC and Linux versions of Darksiders, so I'm guessing that fits with Feral's next gig.

Great game, great port, enough said. If you haven't got it already then make sure you do.

So yeah, it's also problematic from my experience.

Quoting: Sojiro84Maybe you had the same issue as me. I just converted to Linux and had a few problems with some games just having 30 fps or stuttering like a mad-man.I always have vsync turned off because of issues like you mention. It also causes some Unity engine games to hang at start-up.
Seems that enabling vsync in games destroys your framerate or causes stuttering.
I also had this game and had at max 30 fps. When I disabled vsync i got 100+ fps.
I also had this with the Talos principle I bought yesterday. Also 30 fps there and I am sure my rig is plenty powerful enough for more fps. So I decided to check if vsync was on. It was, so I turned it off and bam, 60+ fps and then went back to other games and turning off vsync improved my fps there as well.
I might not have said is enough so,
tl;dr, vsync off = iwin.
So yeah, it's also problematic from my experience.

I hereby nominate Aspyr Media into the Linux gaming hall of fame, and may they make bucket loads of surplus cash in the shortest possible time after breaking even, for their pure awesomeness alone. Having got that off my chest, i'm off to buy Geometry Wars 3.

Very good news. I loved the original on the PS1, although I got well stuck about 80% through. Maybe I'll finally complete it on Linux.

Not sure it's right to add Early Access games to the GOTY nominations. Some are not even feature complete.

Can anybody confirm is it's working well with the ATI proprietary drivers? Also if there are no options to set the resolution, is it at least using the default resolution set in the driver settings?
