Wargroove, the turn-based tactics game from Chucklefish should see Linux support
6 Feb 2019 at 4:53 am UTC

Quoting: FurysparkSweet. I was a rather disappointed that it launched with no Linux version. It's back on my radar, then, and looking forward to it again.
Exactly! Some co-workers showed the game the other day, and I was bummed that it was only for Windows, especially since it was published by Chucklefish. I'm happy to hear that it's coming, and now it'll promptly go on my wish list. I'm a fan of games like Fire Emblem / Advance Wars / FF Tactics Advance.

Looks like it's coming to GoG as well. w00t!

EDIT: OK, I see that it's on the Switch. I don't have a Switch, but I'll probably get one this year or next year. So, the big question for me is whether I think I'll play Wargroove multiplayer or not. If yes, then I'd rather get the PC version for voice and text chat capabilities. If no, then I'd probably want to play on a mobile gaming system that's even less cumbersome than a laptop. Plus, you know what, computers can just be distracting, just like cell phones. I get on the computer to play games, but then I have to check a whole bunch of things first, and I might not play a game at all.

There's some pretty big sales going on right now, here's a look

I picked up Blaze Rush. Reminded me too much of an SNES game I liked a lot as a kid.

Will you join the hackers or help bring them down? Tech Support: Error Unknown is releasing this month

I've worked in a NOC before as well. Join "hackivists" or bring them down? Well, now, I suppose it matters what their methods and motivations are. ;)

The IM pic of Lana Black reminded me of an editor from HackerNews.

The developer of 'Rise to Ruins' is doing so well, they're paying back supporters

I have Rise to Ruins on itch. I've only been able to get it to start up by installing it in a VM. The developer says the game can't run in jre versions shipped with Arch. I'm hoping that will change sometime. Since I have a pile of other games, I don't want to change my system jre to make just one work. Here's to hope. ^_^

It was -30F degrees the other two nights here in northern U.S. Nope, I didn't go outside.

Steel Rats, a mental-looking 2.5D motorbike combat action game is coming to Linux

Oh. This is neat, man. Kinda bummer that it's only single-player. I was hoping for a Vigilante 8 (or Twisted Metal) type of game mode. :)

Ooo, I'm really happy to see this. I think I'll have to continue my questing!

Quoting: slaapliedjeMaybe NWN is another game we should get a persistent world set up for Gaming On Linux users. :)
Hmm, I might look into this. :)

Unique steampunk survival game Volcanoids has erupted into Early Access

I don't know if I care about PvP for this one, or even guns for that matter. Overall, it's looking really cool.
