Quoting: BaemirMacs don't get a port either. And their market share is substantially higher.Quoting: Lord_PhoenixI don't know, to be honest, this is barely a mobile game, so will anyone miss it if it won't make it to the platform?That's one way to look at it. The way I see it, it's worrying that even some Visual Novels refuse to make Linux ports now. These are the simplest games you can make, in technical terms. And yet here we are. It seems our community is seen as so tiny and irrelevant that we're not deserving of even the slightest effort from the devs.
Cyberpunk side-scrolling stealth shooter Contract Work arrives on Linux this month

Planned release date June 2013.
I noticed you have a pretty aggressive release date. Can you actually finish the game by then?He's only 6 1/2 years late...
Yes! Most of the heavy technology work is already done, and HTML5/Impact makes updating quick and easy. In addition, after Contract Work goes live I can easily add additional content and features. I'm very confident that Contract Work will be available for everyone to play starting June 2013.

Not bad indeed. Here on a GTX1060 with 2560x1440 display and "very high" settings the framerates went from 60/83/40 to 90/126/59. 50% plus - now that's what I call a "noticable difference".

Quoting: kaimanAre we talking about a 17-year-old girl and a 70+-year-old geezer? And this is supposed to be the "most plausible scenario" in RMS imagination? Yes, there might be cases where a young girl presents herself as willing under such circumstances. But I would call them "most implausible".We can imagine many scenarios, but the most plausible scenario is that she presented herself to him as entirely willing. Assuming she was being coerced by Epstein, he would have had every reason to tell her to conceal that from most of his associates.But even that lacks the context of the whole, without the original source, so take it with a grain of salt.

Another one found a solution:

Makes you wonder, how the developers tested their own benchmark. Doesn't work OTOB on Ubuntu, Mint, Fedora...

A look at how Steam Play is doing, based on the ProtonDB reports from July

Quoting: EhvisOTOH there are enough gold ratings which don't request tweaks (or report annoyances where it is unclear whether they occur on Windows as well). Gold quotes taken from games I would all rate as platinum:Quoting: EikeSo, BTW and IMHO, having to set environment variables would be gold, not platinum.Something not all submitters appear to honour. I see a lot of platinum reports that still mention a specific setting. So I expect the realistic number of platinums to be lower in favour of gold.
"Disabling Esync isn't strictly necessary but it does make the main menu animations run a bit smoother. Both the main game and snapmaps work."
"Runs fine without any tweaks but suffers from mildly annoying stuttering. I'm sure there is a fix but I've just dealt with it."
"I reduced the resolution in order to be playable on my old laptop."
"Full playthrough"
"Works really well apart from slight stutter when starting a level."
"Worked perfectly except resolution which was 4:3 but would probably be fixable with minor tweaks." (ann: all Steam screenshots show that Fieldrunners IS 4:3.)
