Speculation: porting studio Feral Interactive could be in some trouble (updated: they're fine)

Quoting: EhvisIn Dutch we say "een storm in een glas water" (I'm sure the meaning can be figured out with the knowledge of English. I'm expecting that this is what we have here.

In England we unsurprisingly say 'storm in a tea cup'.

This could really just be an admin oversight.

Bought it, enjoyed it. Thanks for the heads up on it.

Reminds me of Desert Golf on android.

Bite the Bullet looks like an absolutely insane 2D action-RPG shooter coming to Linux

This might fill the broforce shaped hole in my heart. Controller support, local co-op, explodey things. Hope it turns out well!

Confessing my continued love of the Steam Controller, a few years after release

Yeah it's great. With Rocket League I have the paddles set to roll left and right.

I also love that it works with Wake On Lan. I can just grab a steam controller and boot my whole PC right up like a console.

I've gone back to Dirt Rally - still love it. It's a great homage to rallying, with all the cars you would want in it.

I play sort of hardcore mode - locked to cockpit view, no HUD stuff, manual gears (albeit with a controller...). It's just you and your co-driver, and it's a real rush. When you hit your stride there's nothing quite like it.

Great port by Feral too. I play on old-ish hardware and it's smooth.

Ultra Off-Road Simulator 2019: Alaska will be supported on Linux with enough requests

This looks right up my street. If you manage to bring it out on Linux it's probably a buy from me!

> From now, every time you touch the ball you will get two points (limited to one per second)

This is a bad idea, way to many people already make it their only goal to smack the ball.

My wife and I have been playing this in local co-op mode and it's been a great - I can definitely vouch for the two player mode!

We have a copy of 'Nimbatus - The Space Drone Constructor' to give away to one lucky Linux gamer

I would build a drone that follows me at a close distance, playing sound effects from time to time.

FRAMED Collection, a noir-styled spy adventure where you rearrange comic tiles is now out
19 May 2018 at 7:13 pm UTC

Played it on Android, at least the first one. It was a cool idea albeit a little short.
