This game is _really_ good, I own it and played it a bit. I am too scared to continue, though, since horrors are not my thing :(

Quoting: dubigrasuIs that Rutger Hauer? Everything seem very Blade Runner-ish, even the music.
Yes it is! He's mentioned in the trailer description on YouTube.

Aftercharge, a new competitive FPS that should get Linux support sounds very interesting

Quoting: laurentmercureHello!

To answer your concerns: We haven't added Linux as supported platforms on Steam because Steam requires us to enter minimum requirements for each OS and we still have no idea what kind of requirements the game will need for its minimum ( on any OS for that matter ) so we didn't want to commit right now.

Yeah we'll be working our development on Windows first, our Linux build probably won't be there until Beta.

I hope this clears things out a bit : )
Gotta love that swift reply <3

Leaving Lyndow removes Linux support from Steam due to masses of bug reports

Pro tip: when releasing a game, outsource the platforms you know nothing about, in best case scenario look for a company that will take care of multiple platforms at the same time (Mac, Linux, consoles).

Paradigm, probably the strangest game I've ever played is now on Linux

The game's full of Central/Eastern Europe jokes as well :) For example "DUPA" means "ASS" in Polish :)

The Linux version is a bit bugged (mostly visuals, nothing gameplay-breaking) but it's still my favorite zombie game - and I don't even like zombie games! Grab it while it's hot :)

Steam is now available as a Flatpak app via Flathub

Quoting: wojtek88Sorry for being ignorant, but I felt I must ask:
Why is this information worth writing article about?
Don't get me wrong, I don't want to criticize here, I just want to understand, because honestly this information seems to have no value at all.
There's no such thing as an information without value :)

But yes, it's not much different from, let's say, an information that Steam got packaged for yet another distro ;)

Insurgency: Sandstorm looks absolutely stunning, still planned to release on Linux

Insurgency is a must-buy for every Linux gamer :)

SteamOS has another new beta with a newer Kernel and updated Mesa

It's really weird, seeing popular media outlets reporting Steam Machines ending up an enormous fiasco but also reading all those news of new Mesa developers continously being hired by Valve. And then Valve focusing on VR. Not sure what to think about it.

If nothing else, perhaps at some point all modern Radeon products will finally be a viable choice on Linux ;)
