I tried it for one evening and never went back to it. Performance was a major issue and graphics settings changed very little. It was mentioned that this game is VRAM hungry, so apparently you really do need more than 4 GB of it to get it to perform.

Second problem. I spent the first hour looking for stone. Even though rock is everywhere, you can't use it because you have to find specific boulders that I only found in one small cave. Maybe I'm missing something, but that just seems weird.

This is how I like to see pixel art. Much more detail and colour but still with the charm of 2d pixel art.

Quoting: Frank DrebinThe game appeared on my Steam Library but it's 0 bytes in file size. I suppose the actual game can be installed later on?

That also happens when a Linux build is provided in a special branch. Could be private though.

I noticed that they reduced the price to EUR 60,- now. So, AAA level now. Still not even close to acceptable for the Linux build though.

Quoting: EhvisWhen you have it installed, the nvidia-settings package is basically a notifier for new driver versions because it updates to the latest version regardless of your current driver version.

I'm not sure I understood you there Ehvis, but I updated the nvidia-settings package now, but it still says NVIDIA Driver Version is at 381.22 under "X Server Information"?

The driver won't update over major versions automatically. You need to manually choose nvidia-384 and related packages to update.

"The problem" is not valid anymore. Since the site update that uses your OS preference on the front page, I've also seen old games with Linux releases show up under "new releases". However, it could be that this only works if you only have Linux/SteamOS selected. Obviously that wasn't the case back in 2015. However, going by the number of reviews, most Windows users appear to have missed this one as well.

Quoting: poke86- The mouse works for the left-right axis only. There's supposed to be a mod to make it go up-down but I didn't bother.

Really? The early engines couldn't do vertical rotation. The first that I recall having that feature was Duke Nukem 3D (1996) and even then it didn't render properly (faked projection where vertical lines remain vertical).

Thank you for notifying me, Peapoll!

In some of the shots, the interface is exactly the same as the one from Planescape Remastered. If that means it uses the engine, then the likelihood of a Linux release is increased massively.
