Actually they are contemplating the removal of multilib, and supporting 32bit only through Snap/Flatpak/Virtual Machines.
Quoting: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel-discuss/2016-June/016661.html18.10+:
* Stop providing i386 port
* Run legacy i386 only application in snaps / containers / virtual machines

I'm planning on playing some Dwarf Fortress again, hoping that this time it will not crash after hours without saving...
Should it crash again, I'll officially call my savegame "broken", and play something else. Probably Darkest Dungeon.

I made the mistake to dig up Civ 5.
Apart from that, a lot of dwarf fortress, and of course KSP.

I still remember the gigantic PITA it was getting the original version running, thanks to Adobe Air. Good to see that Defenders Quest will now finally work without it.

The first episode, Edna's Escape, is also running well on Linux, as it's written in Java. So, while there hasn't been an official Linux release (yet), running the Windows version is as simple as going to the game's folder and running:
java -jar EbaMain.exe w
Announcing the beta of our User Stats page

The page looks great! The only thing one might criticize is, that it will only show data of registered GoL visitors, while the survey could in principle be filled in by anyone who got the link. We'll see if this has significant influence on the sample size.

You have to spend a lot of gold on supplies when entering a dungeon, and you just get a tiny fraction of it back for unused supplies. Entering/Leaving dungeons without finding any loot will have you bankrupt in no time...

I've been playing the Beta for 23 hours already, and haven't had any issues with it (except for the savegame incompatibility between the first two beta versions...).
Makes me wonder what could cause the empty dungeon bug others are seeing. It's probably not a localization issue (what would meanwhile by my #1 guess if something doesn't work on Linux... Many games don't like it when the decimal separator isn't set to '.'), as I've been running Darkest Dungeon with the German locale (which uses ',' as decimal separator)...

Quoting: fagnerlnI was curious about what games I have are Unity3D, so I've looked at this list and I have few of them, mostly indies that I will never play again:There are many more successful PC-games using Unity. Kerbal Space Program, Pillars of Eternity, Cities in Motion 2, Wasteland 2, Hearthstone,… just to name a few.

The engine obviously are focused on mobile and weak in PC, the only game with extreme success was Cities Skylines.
