Heart of the Machine from Arcen Games dropping Native Linux for Proton

Yeaaaah, Unity. My company has been working on their game and while I have been testing it for them on Steam Deck due to me being the only person who has one, I have been reluctant to try talking them into doing a native Linux build because I know how it will perform.

Still bugs me to no end that they have released multiple trailers in which the narrator calls it "The River Realms"

After being removed from Steam, Betrayer is now free on GOG

Quoting: HamishI would not exactly call Betrayer that much of an Indie game though; it was designed by Craig Hubbard of Monolith Productions fame as well as whole bunch of other Monolith veterans.

Indie does not mean amateur. A lot of indie studios are packed with industry veterans.

Proton Experimental brings fixes for Gears 5, Overwatch 2, Phasmophobia
10 Jul 2023 at 7:36 am UTC

Quoting: CatKillerI got Gears 5 in a bundle with a bunch of games that I was much more interested in, so I wasn't bothered that it didn't work. If it works now I might give it a go at some point. It's a chonker download, though.

I had fun with it. As far as a game goes it's an average shooter, but the character writing is great.

Steam Deck now the global #1 top seller on Steam

The ROG Ally has been pretty amusing. Most reviews seem to amount to "This thing has great hardware, but pity it runs Windows". Somewhere in the last year and a half Linux became the cool OS to run for games.
