Satellite Reign co-op mode now in the stable build, and the game is 50% off

It has both local and online coop. I picked it up and played it a little earlier. I was playing online coop with a friend - so I know cross-platform multiplayer works. There were several games in the server browser. I didn't try local multiplayer myself, but I'm pretty sure I saw it there. Plus the Steam store page lists local coop as a feature.

EDIT: By local multiplayer, they mean LAN connection.

Quoting: musojon74Superb! Used to love that map. Are other classic maps in there?

Runner and Runner 2 are among my favorite games of all time. Pure brilliance.

Banished Linux port is pretty much complete, OpenGL performing well

Well this is just fantastic news... I didn't even know a linux port was in the works for this. It was on my steam wishlist for a while but I dropped it after I fully switched to linux and cleaned out the windows-only games from my wishlist. Will definitely be a day one purchase once the port is ready.

Verdun, the WWI FPS has a free expansion release, game is now broken on Linux (now fixed)

Yep... Game now launches for me as well. I can't connect to the multiplayer servers though. Although I'm almost certain I screwed something up in my firewall settings, and so I'm almost certain this is my fault here...

Well I have no idea what the reported issue is due to the link in the original post not working.... although I can confirm that the game does not launch on my machine. I'll keep it installed and wait for a patch.

How can you sell a game on Steam and not test on all your supported platforms when releasing a major new version? Early Access is one thing, but this is a properly released game.
Hey man... keeping a copy of linux laying around the office for testing purposes can be mighty expensive... :whistle:

I love this game - I played it briefly after release. The game mechanics made it a great realism shooter. The only downside was the lack of content (IE: maps). So this free update is very much welcome. I shall re-download it and do some testing myself.

RollerCoaster Tycoon World now planning on Early Access, Linux is not day-1
25 Mar 2016 at 8:19 pm UTC

Darn, I was looking forward to this. I was going to preorder at full price too so that i could participate in the early access. I'll keep following the game for now, but they won't get my money until Linux playability is more concrete...

Looks neat... There is quite the number of Steam user reviews complaining about overreaching DRM though... On the Steam page it does say the game incorporates 3rd party DRM "Reality Pump". Apparently it locks you of the game if it detects hardware changes. Any word on if they will be trying to incorporate this kind of thing into the Steam O/S version?
