That game is complete garbage. :/

Anyhoo, I already own X-COM:EU and will be picking up the expansion :Enemy Within the second the Linux version is ready. It's one of the few games I managed to just totally lose myself in.

No, it's just fantasy. Caught in a landslide...

Yeah, engine support is no longer an excuse for lack of Linux support. The remaining problem is when devs taint their game with other third party tech that doesn't support Linux.

This reminds me a lot of Desktop Dungeons.

I'm developing using Unity. It's a really good development environment and gets stuff done. I'm running it under WINE, which is not ideal, and if I get more established as an independent developer and able to devote more time to educating myself I'd very much like to move away from it entirely.

Thing is, running the editor under Wine seems to mostly use the wine-mono stuff, making me think that shipping a Linux-native editor might not be all that much effort for them, making this attitude doubly stupid.

Would love to have my frakking votes back though! :P

Quoting: GuestI look forward to a day when all websites are decentralized so there will be no need to rely upon things like that for support.

How does that pay for hosting and maintenance? Unconfuse me!

Bought this directly from the developer's site last year and it's a really good puzzle game. Smart and a good thing to play between other things.

Quoting: SuperuserWhy would I pay for Minesweeper >.>

This is a dumb attitude. But I'll humour you with an answer anyway. Here's a review that sums it up: http://www.rockpapershotgun.com/2013/09/13/wot-i-think-hexcells/ [External Link]

By the "xcom_ew.sh" I'm assuming that this means the Enemy Within expansion will be available too. I've been holding off on picking that up till they finish this port.
