Slime Rancher updated, hits 300K sales and I asked the developer about their Linux support

When it hit the GOG floor as an "in dev" title, it was an insta-buy for me. Can understand Steam users however, the curation there is abysmal.

Quoting: Purple Library GuyNATO? Shooting at ISIS? Kind of unrealistic. Shouldn't it be either the Syrian Army, Russians, or maybe Hezbollah, manning that machine gun?
Maybe there should be a NATO espionage game about carefully siphoning weapons, money and trainers to ISIS.
If IS manages indeed to reach the borders of Europe it means they have already overran the Syrian Army and Hezbollah. So, yes, it would be NATO shooting IS.

And it's called IS, not ISIS, hence the game's title.
That's the point, daesh will NEVER reach the borders of Europe, they are just mercenaries paid by Saudi Arabia and Qatar and supported by Turkey, Ukraine, Israel and NATO. Their only mission is a government change in Syria, it's imperialism.
That is rubbish! Unkraine has its hands full, some individuals may be fighting with Daesh, but the same can be said for Russians, Germans, French, Tunisians and so on. Israel is turning a blind eye towards Al-Nusra, using them to destabilize the hated Syrian government. That's their national interest, a weakened Syria won't support Hezbollah in Lebanon. NATO is bombing only Daesh, but supporting the Kurdish militias. Saudi Arabia _is_ fighting Daesh as well, the kingdom is well-aware of the risk they are facing, since Daesh is essentially Saudi Arabia without king (and oil). Qatar and Turkey are supporting Daesh, that much is true. They both believe this would enable them to become the new leading nation in the region.

Wait a moment... That's Netanyahu? The president of Israel? Yes, it is. What's the problem with that? :D
Where does it say that's a Yihadist?

A Linux version of our client is planned eventually, but we don't have an expected release date right now. Stay tuned for future announcements! [/code]
"planned eventually".. Like the spanish version of the site...
Coming from GOG, "Planned eventually" is an euphemism of "Not gonna happen".
Count your blessings! Just look at what a German version has done for us Germans...

New Linux & SteamOS gamer survey for February

Quoting: PozzuoliTechnically, KDE is the company (like Canonical), and the desktop environment is Plasma.

You could just change the entry to "KDE Plasma" to avoid confusing people.
Politically KDE is the company, technically it's the DE.
