That looks very clever.

I appreciate you highlighting these smaller indie games. Lots of hidden gems out there.

Quoting: GuestThanks to Aspyr anyway, BL2 gave me a lot of hours of pure fun in single player mode.

Me too.

Sad to see Gearbox/2K not following through.

Quoting: buckysrevengeThey're also about to release another game very soon, Mesmer, which takes place in the Teslagrad/WttW universe and will have native Linux support

That is good to know! I love the world they have built.

Now I just need to go finish WttW...

The title "No More Games..." seems a bit misleading to me. It reads as if games will no longer play at all on the box.

I am just plain amazed at what Valve has cobbled together into Proton from some pretty scattered projects. For Linux gamers it is a huge gift.

I just want to say a massive thank-you to all the Proton team, but also the Wine and DXVK folks. You know who you are and, yes, you all rock.

I think Hexcells hits almost the perfect balance in a puzzle game. There are many good puzzle games, but I don't think any have quite edged out the king.

That said, Patterna was a good attempt. Quite clever. (Thanks also for the Globesweeper recommendation.)

Quoting: EikeI'm not sure if I would be too keen on playing it again.
It's a one-trick pony - with a great trick.

True.

However, I have to admit to being curious exactly what they have done. Particularly if it has taken this long.

I don't think I will be able to resist firing it up again...

I often get bored with games that look like they might be walking simulators, but this game had plenty to keep me exploring and having fun. They got the pacing just right.

Thank-you to Mikael Forslind for writing such detailed answers to the interview questions. I like your attitude of "treat everyone kindly." It seems to be somewhat rare these days!

I hope you continue to have enough success to keep writing new games :-)

Quoting: Purple Library GuyThe Man is well worth mocking.

I agree! Mockery has a long and proud tradition... as long as the mockery is well-written and not just an afterthought.

Edit: I just thought the little economic model might have been able to stand on its own. It looks fun either way.
