Quoting: slapinBut where is Linux version?

Bundled with the Windows copy. It runs on Ren'Py so it uses the same file, just run the .sh instead of the .exe.

Man, this game... Thanks for the tip, vermillion. Not the kind of horror game that makes you jump in your seat, but it sure got creepy and tense in places and the content warning is justified. Will probably try a couple more playthroughs as well.

Quoting: GuestAlso my first "Visual Novel" - I doubt any others could compare. Maybe I am wrong. If anyone else is reading this who finished the game, are there any others?

I only did one playthrough of CUPID [External Link] (which is also free), but that's the one visual novel I could relate to this. From what I recall it gets a good deal more disturbing and graphic than DDLC, and it's more consistently gloomy. It doesn't have a dating sim veneer, so it's still rather different, and the choices you make aren't about whom you become romantically involved with. It does have nudity, though.

*Shifts uncomfortably.*

Not exactly what I have in mind for my first video game, but now I'm intrigued since the trailer makes no mention of the horror aspect.

Pay for it?

Talking about the term "piracy."

Ah misread it, just call it theft.

Then you have people who argue it's not theft because the people you "steal" digital files from still have them.

Quoting: DrMcCoyWhen you don't have the game on Steam, the "Owned" says something else instead (can't remember what now).

It's grayed out with an X.

Quoting: GuestCan we as Linux users forget about "piracy"? Illegal downloading is not equal to taking a ship violently (and likely killing everybody/taking hostage on board)! I really don't like that we still use the Microsoft (Ballmer/Gates) lingo.

What is your proposed alternative?

Followed Death Trash on Twitter for a while until I got tired of all the retweets. The gifs were certainly entertaining. The cynical humor mixed with the grim setting could make for a fun combination if the story also delivers.

So it's not just me, then. As far as I'm concerned they don't even need idle animations, just use static sprites when they're not supposed to be in motion...

Considering that Linux was a stretch goal from the start of the campaign, and the first port in line for funding, I didn't feel too nervous about their intent to really make one, unlike some campaigns where it's added mid-campaign in a "oh yeah we could make a Linux version too" kind of way. So I backed it and we'll see. At worst I can just ask for a refund.
