Been playing Minecraft and 7 Days to Die with a group of friends over the last couple of weeks. It's been pretty fun so far, although the latter really needs to be optimized more (especially in memory usage).

Quoting: subHow to not promote your platform. :dizzy:



This is massively exaggerated and, thus, wrong.
Why would that be the case? Game developers on Steam should focus on ensuring compatibility with distributions that are officially endorsed and supported by Valve. There are only two distros that meet that criterion: SteamOS and Ubuntu. It makes their jobs easier. People running something else should test first on either or both of those two before writing bug reports or writing bad reviews related to technical issues.

Volo Airsport, An Air Gliding Game Released For Linux, We Have Keys To Throw At You
27 Jul 2015 at 12:11 pm UTC

I'm a big fan of flying. Like many here, I would like to have an experience as close to that of a bird gliding and flying through air.

Unlike (probably) a good portion of people here though, I don't have a lot of money to buy games with. I have a weekly payment of around $20-50 and I either get free games or save up for a game I really like (BL2, Portal 2, Postal 2, etc.).

I only have twelve games on Steam (four paid) and I had to save money for my current system. I'd be quite glad to receive a key for this game. Seems nice.

Also, like I've said before, I don't have a lot of greenbacks to buy the real experience. So, uh yeah, there's that too.
