I play a few times a week, at least. It really is a great game and the Meta is always shifting to keep things interesting. I bought the season pass for it as well; totally NOT necessary, but I don't mind supporting Valve's Linux efforts.

Had anyone successfully installed this on Ubuntu? I'm running KDE Neon (18.04) and can not get this thing to build.

Picking this up now, based on the Dev's awesome responses here along with an interesting premise, after finding it in my Steam store's recommendation queue. I was going to wishlist it, but decided to purchase instead. Thanks for listening to the community and for supporting Linux natively.

Quoting: DraconicroseI really like Megaquarium but I had to stop my let's play of it because of waning interest. The expansion brought it back though so now I get to play both the original campaign and the expansion campaign at the same time. XD It's here if anyone is interested: let's play Megaquarium: freshwater frenzy [External Link].
Thanks - Added to my 'watch later' list. I'll check it out :grin:

Picked up the base game last week when it was on sale, and will be picking up this DLC this week. Thanks for the 'Tux support - the game looks great! Can't wait to 'dive-in!'.

Linux Mint votes no on Snap packages, APT to block snapd installs

It's worth noting that for those of us who run KDE Plasma, Snaps (and Flatpaks, for that matter) - Can be enabled or disabled with the click of a button in the Discover software center.

See ---> KDE Plasma Discover Sources Settings [External Link]

Also worth noting are the reasons why someone might want to run certain apps as a Snap. For desktop users, a good use case might be the need to run an older LTS, like 18.04 (I'm looking at you, KDE Neon), but needing an updated version of a certain app. Or, in a production environment, having a standardized version of said application.

For a singular application, I'd personally would rather run as a Snap that going through the hassle of adding a PPA and dealing with the potential problems that said PPA may cause later on during a distribution upgrade.

TL/DR: Use KDE Neon :wink:

This game needs more (Linux) eyeballs. Looks great, and constantly updated.

Absolutely great game which I have sunk many hours in over the years. The Linux support is most appreciated, as always!

Very underrated game. Good tho see this. I actually forgot about the game, as it's been a few years since I played it, but I'm looking forward to giving it a go again.
