Quoting: liamdawe
Quoting: ajgpIm enjoying it, have to admit I play more on my phone than on the PC, but the shared account is appreciated.

My only gripe is that games take a fraction too long. If they were shorter I could easily use this as a filler game.
They did confirm plans for a Turbo mode :)
Turbo mode sounds nice in theory, but I wouldn't be surprised if this would make the game more sensitive to RNG than it is now.

The next Humble Monthly is out, with two more interesting early unlock games

Kingdom Come: Deliverance is apparently hard on the frames with Proton. From what I remember from youtube, it especially likes CPU power.

Total War: Three Kingdoms gets mod support, Reign of Blood DLC and 1.1 patch now out for Linux

Quoting: liamdaweI don't get the delay either, they must be losing sales with Steam Play all this time. It was announced seven months ago, the game has been on Windows for close to a year now too.
They get compensated for Linux sales after the announcement, right? So Steamplay shouldn't matter. Even so, it's been a long time and it's strangely quiet on the Feral side.

Congratulations on making it to 10 years! That really is some exceptional commitment. I've only been here for the last three, but it quickly became my main place for Linux gaming news. And the extensive community around it is what really makes it shine. Thanks to all who worked hard to make it what it is!

Superstarfighter, a free and open source local multiplayer party game

Seems to have a lot in common with Mover or Die. But could be interesting when there is a party. Like, say, tomorrow. :wink:

Kubifaktorium, a voxel colony management and automation game developed on Linux is now in Early Access

Settlers was the first thing that came to me when I watched the vid. Then some Factorio. Not the worst games to be inspired by!

Valve have released the CAD files for the Index VR system, enabling some fun modding

Had a quick look at the cad files. The parts in there are only those shown in the picture, so it's not a complete model of the whole thing. Still useful to create your own foam pieces or to design something for the space with the USB connector in the front.

The impressive first-person metroidvania puzzler "Supraland" now has Linux support

On casual inspection that looks like a lot of fun. Will have to check it out. If Sin gives me a chance to do so. :whistle:

When will people learn to backup everything to Github/Gitlab. :D

This almost sounds too silly to be true. Of course there is the "don't attribute to malice that which can be adequately explained by incompetence" idea, but you do have to wonder whether there may be an ulterior motive here. Possible they just want to get on with new stuff and not spend time fixing horrible broken old code for a game that won't generate much in sales from this point.
