Quoting: fleskYes, it's on Steam now, and it seems to work without issues. Except, occasionally there are lines of dialogue which are not voiced, but I'm guessing that's not platform specific. Also, I don't think I got notifications for the achievements I unlocked, but that might be something I've turned off.
I'm seeing the same issues.

Quoting: fleskI also agree that it's disappointing when the Linux version is not put on Steam for whatever reason. Part of the reason I back crowdfunding campaigns, is because I want Linux to be seen as a more viable gaming platform. That doesn't work when the game missing from the most popular game store.
Completely agree!

They've been through that exercise at least once before, haven't they? Red Flag Linux didn't seem to get much traction, although it was around for many years.

Quoting: crabelThe only thing to complain about is the cliffhanger ending. I guess, the game designers simply had to get the game out to earn money. So, they kinda stopped without really resolving everything ...
I was annoyed about that as well, until I remembered that the Kickstarter had episodes 2 and 3 listed as stretch goals:

I don't think they have said anything about future episodes recently, but presumably that's still the plan?
