Blue June is an upcoming 2.5D story-driven adventure game

I've played the demo on Steam using Proton and it works fine for my system. Hopefully the dev will be able to make a Linux port but I like the project and have backed it on Kickstarter.

Powerful Linux video editor Kdenlive gets a huge new release

Quoting: EikeCool!
I mean it!

... I'm looking for the opposite though:
A simple tool, non-crashing please, for dummies.
Please don't make me googling how I can cut something at the beginning and the end.
Cutting videos short, maybe some simple blending.
Please have "output format like input format" option.
I use Shotcut for video editing and creation. I'm quite satisfied with how it works and it's fairly simple.

CARRION brings on the grisly reverse-horror on July 23

There are custom levels that you can download for the demo that are really quite good and show off some more of the game. Just do a search for "Carrion custom levels"; they are quite easy to load into the game's directory and can be loaded by using the in-game console (the tilde ` key in NA) and typing in "load_level levelname", case sensitive file names for Linux, of course!

Loads of fun until the full game releases! :smile:

Steam Play Proton 4.11-8 is out with vkd3d for Direct3D 12 support

Most of the games that I've tested so far that worked with the previous version of Proton don't work with the latest Proton 4.11-8. Good thing I can fall back to Proton-4.19-GE-1 (posted earlier this week on GamingOnLinux here to get everything working. Are most people having issues or is it just me?

***Edit***: I fixed this issue by removing everything in the .steam/compatibilitytools.d directory. I think too many files there was messing up the default proton.

Steam 'Remote Play Together' is now in Beta, allowing local multiplayer games over the net

Quoting: GuestI've invited a person on Windows to multiple games and they could join just fine and performance was good.
I could however not join a single one of their games. When they joined my games they had no audio at all.
For some of the games, their gamepad would replace mine as gamepad #1 so I'd have to play using keyboard.

There's a ways to go before this is mature I guess :D
I just did a quick test and I can confirm that I can host as a Linux player! I hosted to a Windows client and we were able to use two separate controllers after some simple tomfoolery. Like the previous example, audio was not working. Unfortunately we were pressed for time so I couldn't test further. Once this has matured, it will be a terrific feature! (I'm just thrilled that I can finally host local multiplayer games remotely using Linux!)

Valve will bring out 'Remote Play Together' to give online support to local multiplayer games

If it works for Linux, I hope Linux players can host. That would be a game changer over Parsec.

Quoting: Liam DaweWhy do you need Parsec? It has online play already.
Hi Liam! If my Steam friends are hesitant to purchase, I could convince them first to buy Havocado by trying out a few rounds via hosting Parsec (if there was a Linux hosting ability). I suppose I could use my persuasive skills and just get them to buy it; like I said it's not too expensive. :)

Nice playing it in native Linux. Now all we need is to be able to host a game with Parsec in Linux, although the price for this game is not too high so I guess I could try to convince Steam friends to purchase it for some online fun!

What have you been clicking on this weekend?

Quoting: PatolaCity Car Driving - tuning it to work correctly under proton, sent a solution to the language problem to github and protondb. Works great, bought it to my wife too, it works with force feedback both on the G29 (mine) and G27 (hers).
Thanks for your English language fix - I was able to get City Car Driving working on my rig too!
Also played a bit of native Rocket League with Liam's earlier posted fix and Fallout 4 with sound tweaks for Steam Proton.
