I don't want to ruin people's enthusiasm, but making a puzzle game that requires real programming skills to play is a niche product. A very niche product.

I get it. It was a passion project. But those rarely sell unless you're passionate about mainstream topics.
Tropico 6 gets a few new features plus a Linux release on GOG

Tropico 5 was and still is awesome. The series is a great way to teach kids about politics and all of the sneaky things that come with it. I got Tropico 5 on Steam because it's drm free and it has a Linux build. Will buy Tropico 6 on gog again just to get the drm linux build.

Get it if you want a modern, tongue in cheek politics simulator where you can be any type of ruler from benevolent to dictatorial. It's a great indirect way to learn how the world works.
Supraland stops supporting Linux shortly after leaving GOG entirely

If "clicking export" in a game engine is all the Linux support they provide then it's no wonder that they're so grumpy about the whole thing. When you treat your customers like second class citizens you should expect backlash. Being surprised about it and blaming the platform you're "exporting" to means that you have the social skills of a preschooler.
Game model maker Asset Forge releases the big 2.0 preview for Linux

It seems like a cool concept on paper but it will probably end up generating easily recognizable models across games. Similar to how many people know and avoid using the clipart collection from microsoft word.

It's no coincidence that pro-drm devs also dislike supporting Linux.
Warhammer 40,000: Gladius gets a new DLC, major update and Steam Workshop

Love the game. It's like a turn-based Starcraft. Works beautifully on Linux. The new faction dlcs are nice especially the one with tyranids.
Game AI is quite decent as in units retreat when they get overwhelmed but not that smart as to outmaneuver you. But, then again, I've mostly played on normal on large maps with 2v2v2v2 alliances.
Prepare your space legs for X4: Split Vendetta and the massive 3.0 free update

Some people say that you need to be online and create an account in order to upgrade your ship. Is that still a thing?

Insta buy from gog. I've really enjoyed this game.
Total War: Warhammer 2 is also very good.
Shadow & The Blade DLC for Total War: WARHAMMER II is out now for Linux, plus a big new patch

A great game. I got it on the latest steam winter sale after enjoying the Warhammer 40k: Gladius turned based strategy I got from GOG.

Be warned, though, the game is a huge time sink, especially on the Mortal Empires campaign.

Quoting: PatolaThis scam called "Intellectual Property" should be not only extinguished, but banished. It is not property (since it is not scarce) and it is only used to promote injustice.

How would game devs, artists, musicians, etc get paid for their work?
You can't rely solely on donations and the good will of people. If anything, legal trolls only prove that some people lack good will.
