We Need To Go Deeper, a cooperative submarine exploration game adds Linux support

The artwork reminds me of The Swindle, but the gameplay looks more like that co-op PVP game where you fly around in airships. Can't remember its name. Iccarus?

Quoting: NotSoQTI really wish we had more games like NWN and NWN2. As today I'm still unable to drag my D&D gang into NWN, but this is surely a stimulus, with or without toolset (it would slow down the things a lot but...).

Also, I found this some years ago and I guess it's pertinent to share now for anyone who cares:

DrMcCoy frequently posts here about his endevours on Xoreos! Here's a search of GOL for those articles: https://www.gamingonlinux.com/index.php?module=search&q=xoreos, although he does mention that they're mainly crossposts from the changelogs he writes for the project itself.

Will be picking this up on release day. Can't wait!

The Linux beta of Arma 3 has been updated to 1.80, compatible with Windows again for a time

Well, in the end, I had to go from there it. I'm hanging fire on the DLC for now, since I'm not huge on multiplayer, but looking forward giving this a try.

Quoting: g000hYou mentioned Arma 3 as running on Linux, even though in the Steam Store, it is not visible as a Linux / SteamOS title. I'm quite keen to get a list of other similar titles which aren't shown as working on Linux but still work (e.g. Linux experimental betas, etc).

Quite often I buy bundles, and in some cases I'm pretty sure the game is listed as Windows-only, but there's a Linux version lurking there too, if only I knew about it! I tend not to install the Windows games in bundles, unless I really like the game or I know the game works on Linux.

A good example is Everspace, which doesn't show the Linux/SteamOS icon on Steam store, but there is a working Linux version available.

Yes, I found that page as well... but... It shows all the working Linux games (2500+) including the ones which have the Icon showing on Steam store. I want to filter out just the ones which work on Linux but don't show a Linux/SteamOS icon on the store.
The only one I know about it The Swindle, which I wrote about a while back on this site. There are likely to be others, but you really just to hear about them through word of mouth.

For some reason, this reminds me of a cross between Nintendo's Pikmin and Klei's Oxygen Not Included. I'm also looking for a good excuse to spend money at Itch.io, so I'll be checking this one out.

Not sure I wanted to "like" this article, but a great review nonetheless. Rubbish that it turned out to be so negative. I'm not a fan of pirate/buccaneer games, but the Warhammer brand gave me some hope that this would be a worthwhile purchase. Obviously not!

Well, after a few hours of playing this awesome game, I got drunk. Yay! You guys knock yourselves out on the DRM/Free holy war.

Remember though, we're here, on this site, because we have three things in common: 1. We love games. 2. We use and love Linux and 3. <mumble mumble mumble>

There was definitely a third thing. Community? Zombies? Beer? Probably beer. Yeah, I'm drunk.

Be cool peeps. See y'all in game.

C'mon, no need for the attitude. Everyone is a friend here and everyone is entitled to their own opinion.
