Another great bundle for those who may not have them yet, Metro Redux Bundle [External Link] (about -81%)
Note: while this link is GoL affiliate HumbleBundle, the bundle is also available from Steam directly at the same price, if you prefer.

If you missed it on Itch.io, Basingstoke [External Link] is still free for Linux gamers.

It’s a tough time to be an indie developer, with Steam’s new sale event causing wishlist deletions

Took one look at the Grand Prix thing and was instantly over it. :|
Worst Steam sale 'event game' thingamajig yet IMHO. Will not bother with it at all.

The perils of crowdfunding for Linux games: Eco edition

Again with the Carmageddon! *Mah heart* :'(

The optimism back in 2012 is a bittersweet reminder about the perils of crowdfunding. 7 years later and not much has changed, really...

Speculation: Dying Light 2 may come to Linux after all
10 Jun 2019 at 4:22 pm UTC

Research? Hell, I lived it. :wink:
I had at least one AMD card back when it didn't run at all on Linux/Mesa, despite people seeing some success with GL shader version overrides and whatnot. Being forced to use Nvidia wasn't exactly an ideal solution, but it was at least a solution until the actual problem was identified and resolved.
IIRC; for a long time on the Store page, Techland even said that AMD cards were not supported. They are now, obviously.

I'll remain passionate about Dying Light, thank you very much.

(Not even going to respond to that pathetic 'personal attacks' accusation). :huh:
