GOG now have the Linux version of Shadow Warrior Classic Redux
21 Nov 2017 at 6:57 pm UTC

Quoting: g000hMore than a year since Shadow Warrior 2 [External Link] was released to Windows (13 Oct 2016), it's about time that came out on Linux :/
It's risking to become a vaporware by now, same as happened with the Witcher 3.

GOG now has 'West of Loathing' on their store, including a Linux version

Quoting: KelsI'm listening to the soundtrack right now, and I gotta say I'm impressed. At $5 USD it's a steal for this kind of quality.
Clearly inspired by Ennio Morricone, and indeed a great work. :) From similar works, I also recommend soundtrack for Outlaws [External Link] by Clint Bajakian.

And I found the soundtrack by Ryan Ike on Bandcamp [External Link].

Music from the trailer: The Wild White Yonder [External Link].

Quoting: KelsThe Devs went the extra mile and then some with this one.
Is soundtrack there similar to the trailer music? The trailer is quite good.

THQ Nordic is bringing Sphinx and the Cursed Mummy to Linux

Quoting: GuestThanks. But of course, it’s impossible to subscribe to a thread on the GOG forums…
You can use this feed: https://gogdb.yepoleb.me/changelog.xml [External Link]

And write an alert script that will notify you if it mentions Added download .* Linux ;)

In fact, thinking of it. We should make some plugin for GOL to pull that feed, and filter data by Linux :) Would be neat to have a widget here on the site listing recent GOG releases.

Quoting: ShmerlIt's out on GOG now too.
Thanks for the info! Do you manually check the games you’re interested in, or do you have an automated way of being informed of new Linux releases on GOG? I wish they had an RSS feed for Linux releases…
There is this project: https://gogdb.yepoleb.me/changelog-ext [External Link]

But Linux users also post updates in this thread [External Link].

I laughed just looking at this inventory screenshot:



Looks like it's worth buying :)

Quoting: linuxvangogHi guys, linuxvangog from GOG [External Link] here.
Welcome to GOL!

Quoting: linuxvangogBut sometimes we do :) Also we provide carefully adjusted DOSBox configs and actual game fixes!
Would be nice if you could indicate that DosBox is patched in the game card :) And regarding configs - sure, I often simply take GOG configs, adjust them slightly if needed (for example to use MIDI port for Fluidsynth if the game is using MIDI music), and if it's Windows only GOG release, to use Linux paths and output=opengl instead of output=ddraw.

So your specific tweaks and image bundling are surely very useful.
