Quoting: Mountain ManA Linux distro that doesn't run native Linux games is absurd.

Almost like a mobile Linux-based OS that doesn't support Linux... ;-)

Quoting: NexxticMultiplayer is not happening. Our audience isn't into that and every throwback shooter that tried multiplayer ended up being dead on arrival with a lot of wasted development time. And even when multiplayer does well, it doesn't take long until players move on.

Glad to hear it and thank you for a wonderful game!

Personally, I don't mind the odd bit of multiplayer in Quake or Quake 2 but that's about as far as I go these days. I prefer single-player gaming generally, which is handy as I do not have as much free time as I used to!

Amazing game with rapid movement and responsive controls. Lots of Easter eggs and secrets to find, and some clever level design. The synth-style music is brilliant, too.

My favourite pastime is to smash or walk through all the windows in each level! Currently, I have some stupid amount of hours playtime and am on the Starlight Green level. Highly recommended.

The game does look good, with an interesting concept. However, the graphics scream Unity3D at me which can be a bit hit-and-miss performance-wise on Linux. Still, will certainly check this game out!

The first game was quite good, though I'm convinced I spent most of the time competing against aimbots. Might just be my rubbish performance, though... ;-)

I'd actually never heard of these games until they appeared on Steam. I think I was playing too much Doom or Quake back in those days!

I've been reading the comments on the Steam Store page and it seems that unless you have a Ninjascopic Fighting Platform (*), you aren't going to get far with this one. The reviewers also call it Far Cry with blue people!

There are a number of other cons, in particular: published by Ubisoft, contains Denuvo malware, always-online, in-game purchases and numerous bugs. Add to that a hefty price tag of £114.99 (without discount) if you want the Ultimate Edition (or £59.99 otherwise).

Ubisoft are obviously not interested in Steam Deck (or Linux) anyway, so personally I wouldn't give them the coverage.

Totally procedurally generated missions and story

This is the only part that bothers me. I prefer hand-crafted levels and missions.

Every time I see a reference to Killing Time, I briefly wonder if it's going to be an adaptation of the awesome Indigo Prime story!
