Quoting: PublicNuisanceI am really interested in this game, waiting to hear back from the devs if there will be a DRM free option.
From the campaign FAQ:

We plan on selling the game via online platforms such as Steam and GoG, as well as the Apple App Store for Mac. Backers of our Kickstarters may have access to direct download.

Game store itch is also having a summer sale

Oh, and they have Sky Rogue [External Link]? I forgot all about it. I saw some video a while ago, and it looked really neat.

I'll probably buy Infinitrap (Ohio Jack and the Cup of Eternity) [External Link] there. I was planning for a while.

The trailer alone is already funny:

System Shock remake heads to Kickstarter, Linux is the first stretch-goal

Same thing. I'll back it if they'll move Linux to the base goal, or if the stretch goal will be reached. Since System Shock is a well known name, it has good prospects.

They tried to release Metro, but it was rejected.

@Creak: As I said above, solution for delayed kernels is using dkms module. Linux supports it for a long time already. The problem is - if there is no ready dkms package for amdgpu, creating one yourself is a tedious task. AMD are using something like that in their ADMDGPU-PRO package for closed OpenGL, but I'd prefer a standalone dkms package that can be combined with messa package and the rest of the open stack.

Catalyst is dead. The future is amdgpu + radeonsi.

Nice. I'll try to participate. Currently Mesa and amgdpu seem to be not ready for RX 480 support in Debian testing. I wonder if they'll get in shape soon. Building mesa from source or figuring out how to make dkms module for amdgpu might be fun, but it's not something I particularly want to spend time on and would prefer a ready solution for it.

Two questions. Is it coming to GOG, and will it also have no support after release?
