Does this game offer a campaign or is it kind of sandbox?

Two Point Hospital released with same-day Linux support

Definitely on my buy list.
I just need a few good reviews to convince me to get this in the next days.
Seems like the developer didn't provide any press samples early up, there aren't any reviews available.

Some thoughts on Valve’s new Steam Play feature and what it means for Linux gaming

Quoting: elmapulaccording to what was tested and registered on the google docs:

32.8% completely stable
23.8% stable
5.2% unstable
23.6% crashes
8.3% unplayable
6.4% won't start

i made an chart my self from wineHq a few years ago (platinum, gold, silver, bronze, garbage), it would be interesting to see how things has changed, but i cant find the chart.

in any case, this is different since this is click and play, they have better funding now and this list is recent (dont include games that stoped working in the past and no one tested it again since then)
Problem with the Google Doc is, a lot of test results are useless.
Many failing test results are missing the requirements: https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Proton/blob/proton_3.7/PREREQS.md [External Link]
People should read them before adding their results because it's waste of time.

Fallout inspired 'ATOM RPG' just had a massive update including a new skill tree

The game looks better with every update.
At first I was sceptical but now it seems I have to wishlist it.

EXAPUNKS from Zachtronics is now out in Early Access
10 Aug 2018 at 11:52 am UTC

Quoting: GoboIt's got cut scenes and no harsh restrictions on lines of code per module, while the language is a bit more complex than TIS-100. So it's somewhere in between Opus Magnum, TIS-100 and Shenzen I/O.

Also: it is amazing how fast Zachtronics is shaping the programming puzzles into new interesting forms. They carved their niche and rule supreme.
Assuming that I have no programming skills. Do you think TIS-100 or Shenzen I/O or Exapunks is hard to play?

Dead Matter, a sandbox survival horror plans to have a Linux release after Early Access
9 Aug 2018 at 5:37 am UTC

Graphics look a bit better than 7D2D, apart from that 7D2D has way more content already.
If they only would release more frequently.

Dead Cells, probably one of the best Linux games this year is now out
8 Aug 2018 at 5:53 am UTC

Guess I have to give Rogue games one more last try by getting this. :S:
