So it's already released? Awesome, I didn't know. Now I'm waiting for the game on GOG :)

The Vaporum: Lockdown teaser has me wanting more

Quoting: TcheyI want to like it, but i really dislike real time grid-base crawlers, can’t enjoy them.
There was time-freeze option in Vaporum and it works great. It allowed me to quickly pass the easy fights and to get more turn-based experience during the hard ones. It worked really well.

I loved Vaporum. And I loved how well the game was optimised and perfectly worked on Linux laptop missing dedicated GPU. :heart:
Definitely looking forward for this one.

I've completed the game (GOG version, runs perfect under Linux), but in some cases I searched for inspirations or solutions. It was incredibly smart puzzler. I love Zachtronics since then.

I've played the prologue on GOG. The game is quite demanding in terms of complex rules and a lot of reading. I guess it's also very rewarding, because the world and story are quite intriguing. Works like a charm under Linux.

Quoting: MohandevirTalking about GoG... It seems, but I'm not sure what to make of that, that one of the threads requesting a Linux port of the GoG Galaxy client just got changed to "In progress"... What does that could mean?

I always doubt they'll do this anytime soon. There is no business reason for that. I'm Linux-only user and I think it'd be great to get Galaxy for Linux, but let's face the fact that Steam made a huge progress here, with their one-click SteamPlay. 2 years ago Galaxy for Steam would be nice replacement. Today Steam client is something more for Linux users, it gives you access to almost full library, no matter Win/Mac/Linux official support. I doubt company like GOG would be ever able to deliver this kind of solution for us...

Quoting: kurpThanks for letting me know about FSOpen project, however it looks like a bit complicated process to use it.
Anyone tried the game just under Wine?
It seems you didn't bothered to read anything from the link posted, because setup is straightforward via knossos...
I don't think we share the same understanding of being straightforward. However, indeed, knossos seems to be the easiest way to launch the game at least.

Quoting: tkoniczBought and played a little bit already. Runs well on Intel igpu, ubuntu 19.04, Zbook G5. Just some minor stutter during the first Video. Looks really great, intense atmosphere, nice port, highly recommended.
Thanks for the important info!
