Strategy adventure game 'Pathway' looks awesome in the new trailer, Linux support confirmed

Looks great, but I just don't understand why Chucklefish insists on having all their characters twitch like hyperactive kids all the time. It doesn't even look like they're breathing, they just can't seem to hold in place. It's quite distracting. It looks even worse in Wargroove, another game I'm really looking forward to.

Robot loves Kitty are a husband and wife team. They are only two people, so give them some slack. They always delivered on their Linux promises in the past and build their games specifically so they are cross platform. There's no "if" here, there will be Linux support, you can be sure of it.

If you want to know more about what they do, check their website, discord and twitch channels, they do development stream very often and are great when it comes to community interaction. Seriously, they are the perfect example of a small indie team that deserves your support.

I've been following them since the beta of Legend of Dungeon, and while I'm probably biased, they are one of the best small indie team ever.

Exploring space and avoiding hazards, my thoughts on The Away Team

I got it for really cheap in a Steam sale. It's a fun experience, but as was said in the review, its not much of a game. You really have to approach it more like a novel, but a non-linear one where you grasp more of the game's universe every play through. I wouldn't pay full price for it, but I'm glad I got it. Also the music is kind of nice and the developers reply often on the Steam forums.

Wow, great news. This game is amazing, I played it a bit when I had a windows laptop from work, and its been sitting idle in my steam games list for a long time now. Glad to be able to play it again, and with some luck, save games will be compatible and I'll be able to pick it up where I left it.

Also a fan of FTL, but so far I rather like Darkest Dungeons. It may be because I'm still doing low-mid level quests, but the game doesn't seem all that hard, and by thinking ahead you can deal with the occasional bad luck, after all these games are all about planning and dealing with strings of bad rolls. I did lose a whole team foolishly putting a torche in the shambler's altar, thinking that its a level 1 dungeon and it can be that bad. Yeah... sigh... heh. Otherwise, as long as you have a good healer or two in your team the game is almost a walk in the park. The occultists dish so many critical hits that they significantly lower the team's stress. It seems that vestal+occultist+occultist+whichever-warrior-is-available can't lose so far. Infinite healing, lots of crits, can deal with anything and will make quick work of the back row of any enemy formation, preventing extra stress.

I had completely forgotten about this game... but if I remember well, it was actually pretty good. Might buy it if its on sale real cheap one day.

Is that like... FTL in a train in the Wild West?

Yes... dangerously addicting...

Played it, its fun. Not my favorite game ever from the demo, but definitely on my wishlist now. I'll be sure to grab as as soon as its on sale.
