"This is for Native Linux games only."

Virtual Programming do not port games natively, yet they get nominated for 'Best Porter'? And nobody added GranPC? I have no idea how I missed the call for nominations, otherwise I would have done it myself.

This War Of Mine Finally Fixed For Linux, Includes Other Fixes & Workshop Support

They have started working on some official mod tools, but no word yet on if they will support Linux.
I'm not going to hold my breath. How many games with mod tools have them available for Linux?

I don't know how the final game would play on my pc, but the Linux demo I downloaded from Indie DB has these lines going across my screen and I have no idea why.

Also, should mention the Linux demo is not available on Steam.

Too bad. At least we have Grid and Drift Stage to look forward to.

Republique Remastered, A Beautiful Stealth Action Game Could Come To Linux

I backed this on kickstarter before I completely dropped Windows. Hopefully they do port it.

Quoting: Vladimir-KataevSo it's stealth, maybe linux. Out of curiosity, what compatibility is there with WINE.
Last time I tried it in WINE was mid/late last year. I couldn't get past the main screen since nothing on it would work. Not sure how it is now.

I know Bioshock Infinite was removed from the steam library, but you'd think that would be another one they would like to showcase. Isn't it suppose to be out by March?

I just noticed that myself and came here to post it. £40 for a game is a bit steep for me though.
$59.99 is steep for me, but this isn't some low-budget indie game. I'm willing to take a hit on my wallet to support a company taking a chance on us, especially one that puts penguins before apples.

Guess The Next Linux Port From Feral Interactive, And Win A Copy

I'm going to speculate my answer from a twitter post from a few days back. On Dec. 30 Feral made a tweet asking followers what was their 2014 game of the year and what are they anticipating in 2015. I tweeted:

"1. Quest for Infamy (Linux) 2. Witcher 3 (if released on Linux)"

To which they replied:

"Good choices!"

One other person mention Witcher 3, but didn't say what platform. Also, no one else got a reply from Feral. They could've said good choice on my pick of QfI, yet they said 'choices'. Maybe I'm reading too much into this OR CD Projekt RED wants to avoid another eON incident and has Feral working on a native version of Witcher 3.

My Guess is Witcher 3.
