Indeed. I should have thought about the locale setting. Works properly now.

Can't confirm that. Even on the lowest level the difficulty is absolutely absurd. I wonder whether this is a bug. It is definitely buggy since at one point my aircraft was invisible, the level scrolled on to the first boss and stayed there. All I could do was Alt-F4 the game.

Edit: Definitely a bug. Comparing with a gameplay video from the Steam forums my version runs about 10 times as fast as the one in the video.

KING Art may be doing a Kickstarter for RTS 'Iron Harvest', they're asking for feedback
26 January 2018 at 6:04 pm UTC

Quoting: TheSHEEEPWhat a weird question...

QuoteOn which platform would you like to play Iron Harvest on the most*?
*We are developing IH for PC first. The Kickstarter campaign and all Alpha/Beta builds will be PC-only. We’d like to gauge the level of interest in versions for other platforms.

Windows PC
PlayStation 4 / PlayStation 4 Pro
Xbox One / Xbox One X
MacOS
Linux
And it is single-choice.
Should be multiple choice, really. Even people who dual-boot are rather likely to pick Windows as they just know it makes most sense.

Why? It says the most. If this is too difficult to grasp: Just click the Linux option and be done.

Doom (2016)
Wolfenstein (preferably II: TNC, but I'd also accept TNO or TBO)
Witcher 3

Realistic racing game 'DRAG' coming to Linux soon, built on Linux and it looks astonishing

If this game lives only half up to what screenshots and blog posts promise it is gonna be something truly astounding for a two-man team. I'll definitely buy it and if it is only to support something that inspiring.

Just bought. Mainly because I like the developers attitude (demonstrated by having the source on GitHub). All the better if the game is good, too.

Aaaand finished. Great fun. (Didn't get all achievments and missed the hidden level, though.)

Quoting: MohandevirUnless it changed, from the start they specified it will be a custom, amd based, PC games compatible device:

Ah, interesting. Couldn't find any usable information on the Ataribox website.

Quoting: mahagrI really hope it'll be Ryzen based, if it is, it'll be instant buy for me. If it's using older AMD, I see no point of getting the device...

What makes you think it's gonna be AMD64 architecture? More likely it will be ARM based.

Mantis Burn Racing needs more support if it is to come to Linux
9 November 2017 at 2:05 pm UTC

Quoting: meggermanThere is a similar game from Milkstone Studios, it's 1/4 of the price and will probably give most of the satisfaction of Mantis burn.

Unfortunately it seems to be having an issue with the latest Nvidia drivers :|

Yes. Apart from the fact that it doesn't work and never has on my machine.
