Bad name. "Crawl" is usually used to refer to Dungeon Crawl or Stone Soup.

Great combat system, beautiful graphics. I just wish there was much less clickclick, story telling and more action. It's very much a game on rails too. Shame.

Great to see it going open source. Real shame about the NC clause as it then can't enter the Debian main archive.

Hardly the first RTS/FPS hybrid by a long shot. Remember Battlezone and it's sequels?

Steam only? Pass. I'd like to play it though.

I commend him on doing this and in mind it's how all games should be distributed. Open the source, sell the binaries and/or assets.

3rd Party DRM. Last version I played was 2010 on the Mac so it may have changed but they were very insistant that they had to use it (I think it was SecureRom at the time) in order to protect their game. It may have changed.

Incidentally I just mailed SIGame support asking for alternative payment options (I just want a paypal address to give them money and I can get the game data anywhere) but they fobbed me off (expected) saying it was Steam and Googleplay only.

I WANT to give them money, but they don't want to let me. People are weird.

FM is easily the greatest game ever made IMO, but unfortunately SiGames is a big proponent of DRM and no doubt this will be on Steam only with DRM.

More games will be heading our way!

Great to see Desura get more love. As a non-steam user this is essential.
