Quoting: Purple PuddingIt reminds me of Her Story [External Link], a game I'd love to play on Linux...I once asked the dev of that if there'd be a Linux version and he said he'd be interested, but there was some issue with the video player used. I guess it's a limited third party thing.

I enjoyed the original Spatials, and this one is shaping up to be everything that one needed to be for true greatness.

Linux build definitely running smoother than previously. There does seem to be some kind of slowdown that creeps in right after cutscenes though... might be memory not freeing up. Busy digging for more helpful info now.

Yus! The first was charming and fun. Had to use antimicro to map keyboard controls to my gamepad though, but fairly sure the new one will be fine since Steamworld Heist had proper gamepad support.

I have played through this and definitely enjoyed it. There's not a whole lot to do, and the pacing is quite slow, but it makes up for this with gorgeous painterly environments full of wreckage and frickin huge space frigates. All 'n all I found the slow burn to gradually suck me in and was quite sad when it ended.

Quoting: peta77Linux port is not out yet, just appeared on SteamDB. Also, chances are it's not a difficult port since I'm certain it's not an entirely new engine between releases.Quoting: KimyrielleSo they managed to port the game more or less overnight after asking if people wanted? Including securing permissions?very good question.
That or they decided to port that game LOOOOOOONG before asking in public.
What's more likely?
it actually makes the poll on peoples interest of a port look extremely ridiculous...
I'm still more into GT/Hill Climb and long tracks, lost interest in formula one a while ago.. so it's not very likely i'd buy it... but it's good to see high quality games being ported, that improves the attractivity of linux overall, though the response here for the port was mixed...

Reminder that X: Rebirth is not the terrible game it was at launch any more. Something to consider if you need an immediate space fix.

Quoting: omer666I'm sure they have more than one team working on more than one thing at a time.Quoting: rustybroomhandleLoosely related: Relic just announced they were making an Age of Empires game. I realise it's a Microsoft-tainted franchise, but so so good. Would be nice if a Linux port could happen.I'm afraid this is no good news for Dawn of War III... Hopefully they will release an expansion pack or two like they promised.
