Quoting: whizseI'll probably check out The Holy Gosh Darn demo
Going by the screenshots, that game has literal butt-face characters.

I loved this game when it first came out. Konami did a sloppy HD remaster a while back; apparently they lost the source code and it was based on a buggy pre-release. Nice to see that the new version by Bloober was done well. It's too bad they gave up on native Linux support, but in this case it probably would have been dependent on Konami approving it, anyway.

Lacking nostalgia for the originals, nothing jumps out at me; I guess you are in the same boat.

Wow, DLC costs just as much as the base game. Looks like it has tons of content, though.

The trailer is certainly entertaining, but... MicroProse still exists??? Looking at their Steam page, it looks like it's all genres I don't personally care for, so I guess that explains things.

Valve makes a big improvement for Native Linux games in a Steam Beta update

It does not filter native games, it filters games playable on Linux. And if you have Proton for all titles enabled, then it shows you all games.
A filter that does nothing isn't much of a filter, is it?

Quoting: Linux_RocksMore choices and customization is always a good thing for the end user.
I was going to say: "just use the little penguin icon to filter" to "Show only games that run on Linux" as the tooltip says. But... it looks like they broke that? Perhaps related to what you are complaining about.
