Quoting: UltraVioletWhy DRM free?
Because I don’t buy games on Steam anymore. (For reasons.)
Your loss :-)

Quoting: GuestIt looks pretty good, reminds me of that shoot em up for the DS, Danshaku!
If it releases DRM-free I think I’ll buy it…

Quoting: Geppeto35:'-( what a desappointment: colors are too dark for me (I prefer shiny shootthemup like DonPachi, Super Aleste, Stargunner, Sky force), I don't enjoy the music ... a shame because it's definitely my cup of tea.
I don't understand the system: killing enemy ships provides bonus or unlock something, or is the goal only to use the three kinds of weapons to kill them all only?
Hope you’ve checked out Sky Force Reloaded on Steam?

Awesome game

Son of Scoregasm from Charlie's Games is absolutely insane, out now for Linux

Quoting: GuestDoesn't your itch.io client tell you what the missing libs are ?
The issue I had with the older games (like the awesome Space Phallus) was the lack of sound. I had to start the game with aoss (32 bits) to route OSS to ALSA (and thus PULSE). padsp has an issue on Ubuntu 16.04, cannot install the 32 bits version of it (one has to get the binary manually ; so it's easier to start the game with aoss)
For Scoregasm, I had to manually add to the libs subdirectory the right versions of libssl and libcrypto. Charlie will eventually add them to the game distribution.
Apart from that, I don't remember which 32 bits libs are required. I guess you are supposed to get an error message indicating which ones are required ?

I didn't have to tweak anything for the latest Sons of Scoregasm.

Regarding Bullet Candy dependencies, here what "ldd "Bullet Candy" returns" ]
The error message I got about the missing libs I searched the synaptic package manager for and it said I already had them installed. So that was that.
I’m more concerned about getting the ‘zoom out’ function working in Defense Zone 3 HD as it’s doing my head in, plus Sky Force Reloaded is going to be taking up most of my time on payday :-)

Quoting: GuestWhich other one didn't work for you ? I got them all to work, I'll tell you how
Hopefully Charlie will fix them !
Bullet Candy

there's a FAQ help webpage about installing 32 bit games on 64 bit hardware which says 'page not found' it was only pennies so i just left it and thought of it as a donation

i see no one looks at the forums here anymore then :-)

the game is amazing, and for me it came out of nowhere. as its been said above i wish more of his games where available on Steam. brought one on itch.io and couldn't get it to work on my system

i brought this for the Vita on release and it was so refreshing to play a genuinely fun game. i really look forward to playing more games from Charlie's Games,

not sure why though its almost twice the price of the PS Vita version which came out a little while back and has the same amount of content

Nice to see Defense Grid 2 get a mention: love the game, I have it on Steam / PS4 / Xbox One still going through it trying to get all Elite gold medals on every sub-mission

Devader is an absolutely nuts shooter coming to Linux early next year
