ATOM RPG had another huge update expanding the game along with a full release next month
16 November 2018 at 2:37 pm UTC

I'd say it's more polished than I expected, and seems a pretty well fleshed out game world - on a par with a shorter Wasteland 2, perhaps - but they seem to be expanding with new locations, characters and quests on each update. Some of the quests/stories/plots etc are excellent, with some great little mysteries and side quests in there.

I've had about 35 hours out of it during its early access so far, which I think is probably from two separate runs, as far as they'd got at the time. I'd say it's kept my attention throughout, in a way that Fallout 3 didn't (and it's certainly less buggy than Fallout 3 or New Vegas). Personally, I'd say it's well worth it. Even if they stopped development now, there's certainly £11 worth of game there.

Odd Realm is a sandbox settlement builder inspired by Dwarf Fortress and Rimworld with Linux support

I've not had the same problem as you, sorry. In case it's relevant, I'm running the newest "unstable" one, "oddrealm_v0_6_5_1_linux(unstable)" and running it through the itch.io client. I've put a good 10 hours into it without problems - so it seems pretty stable to me. If there were worldgen options, I left everything on default, but I can't remember what the world seed was that I used (I assume I left it as whatever it was).

Atomic Society, a post-apocalyptic city building strategy game will come to Linux
16 November 2018 at 2:07 pm UTC

I'd forgotten about this one - it's been on my wishlist for a long time. Finding now it at least runs on SteamPlay/Proton, and with a native port due, I quite fancy buying it pretty soon. In terms of encouraging future Linux compatible releases, would you recommend waiting until an official native Linux release, or to get it now to play via SteamPlay?

Meeple Station, the cooperative space station builder is now on Kickstarter, Linux demo available
6 September 2018 at 12:50 pm UTC

I'm not sure if it's just my computer, but when I try the demo, it resizes the game window to 2464 x 1536, well beyond my 1920x1080 screen, so I can't get to any of the buttons. I tried changing the prefs in /.config/unity3d/VoxGames/Meeple Station, but it resizes each time I launch it.

[edit] If you press ESCAPE, you can get to a settings menu, then set a manual resolution or fullscreen.
