If Artifex had translated their games to Spanish, my wife had bought all of them long time ago. They translate to all world languages but spanish and portuguese... so sad.

It was very funny and a good "cross plattform" test, Liam. Now we know that we can play against the "windows" guys, and try to beat them!! :D

We can be almost sure that we play RL cross plattform online matches. Lets go!!!

Rocket League released for SteamOS, it's in beta

I downloaded it this morning and launched the game. The first time the game runs windowed but searching in the options I configure full screen and Vsinc and some antialias. Details in high. All goes ok. It works.

Hum... were is the "languaje" option?... I cant find "languaje" in the menu, so I have to leave in english. I would have preferred my "spanish" languaje, but english its OK for me. I supose that translation is in the works.

Select a exhibition match... Rumble mode 3 vs 3 and launch the game. The game runs smoothly with some stutters the first time it loads some effects or elements (explosions, ball effects, smokes, shoes... :D ) but once the effect is loaded the first time the stutters disapears.

Then I select a online match. The game searched a match around my game level and preferences. Game starts and all in all the game runs really well. I dont know if I was playing with another plattform players, but I find a match only in seconds, and the "Rumble mode population bar" was almost full.

The gameplay is smoothly and the rumble mode is very funny. It runs flawesly and its a very good gameplay to be a beta version.

Good job Psyonix!

Latest Steam Hardware Survey shows Linux has grown, by a tiny amount (updated)

I got the survey last month. I cant remember last time I did it on my linux rig.

We have to catch those surveys with a grain of salt. The trend indicates that more and more publishers are looking in to the linux market. More and more games (still missint AAA's, but the time will come) are coming to linux. Something is hapening, or all the developers and publishers launching linux titles are going crazy?...
You think so?... really?

Looks like Stardew Valley is starting to gear up for the Linux release
