Compliment taken! ;)

Your reviews' style and lenght are way beyond my abilities as well as my intention, so that's as much as I can deliver. ^_^

Awww, you just stole the star of the next issue of The Funding Crowd... :P

Awesome game, I really hope it gets funded!

Hi Chris,

Fair enough, I understand your reasons, but still I think it could be quite a letdown for Linux backers if eventually they don't get the game released on this platform on day 1, specially if they pledged believing so.

I'm not really sure a Linux export is as easy as I said with Unity 4, I just remember somebody saying something along these lines, and complaining that because of this some developers just distribute what Unity spits at them, without even testing it.

I hope this is the case for Ray's the Dead (the exporting ease, not the lazy distribution :P) so there's a Linux version on the first day and this discussion about announcing stretch goals or not is rendered purely academical. ^_^

Funnily enough, there's no mention on the Kickstarter page that a stretch goal will be needed for day 1 Linux support. :(

Anyway, I thought that creating a Linux build with Unity4 was as simple as clicking a button...

Quoting: YulikeI must applaud your work. This isn't your best article, but it was a great read nonetheless.
I really freaked out when I accidentally published that. But in the end I think it's really become a great read, don't you think? :)

Desura adds another 4 games for Linux!

Quoting: berarmaThe issues might be related to the name change, I remember having read about the problems of the name change in the game comments.
Could be, but this game changed names a few weeks ago, as it happens.

Desura's Alphafunding section is weird, the order of the games changes almost daily. This doesn't happen in the store's main section though. :|

Lockdown Protocol is not really new, it's just the old The Platform Shooter which for some reason has jumped to the top of the newest alphafunding titles.

PS: Fixed a broken link. ;)

Humble Double Fine Bundle launches, we were right!

Quoting: xmirrorxA typo in the title Liam. This feels a bit off for a humble bundle with the pricey tiers.... eh I think I'm going to skip this as I already own some of the games.
I must be tired, where's the typo? :(
'where' should be 'were'. ;)

PS: I'm pretty sure I corrected it a while ago... :O

Woooooooooooo!!! I can't wait to download and play most of these games! But first I'm gonna add them to the sales list. :P

Hamish, I too think it's a pity that The Cave is not included in this bundle, but since it was published by Sega and being a fairly recent release it was somehow to be expected, don't you think?
