Oh yes, waiting patiently for this game since they said, they'll create a Linux version, but after the initial release, as it was pretty tough with FTL for the small team to release on all platforms simultaniously.

Nevertheless... on the one hand we can be lucky to get great titles like this for our platform. On the other hand though, we mostly have to hope and to wait. Sometimes even years. I hope there will be a time in the near future, where we don't have to hope for a Linux version and get it on day 1 for every new game. Meanwhile we have to actively contact devs and publishers and show them there is a demand to have their game on our favorite operating system.

Looking forward to play Into the Breach natively on Linux soon!

Quoting: Patola

Quoting: melkemindIt would be nice if these companies that want to see "demand" would actually do market research rather than just waiting to see how many people post on an isolated forum thread that many users may never even see.

It incurs additional cost. So the best way to start considering even if the market research for a port would be appropriate is a scenario with no cost that could supposedly could give a good enough approximation of the results.

Yeah, though DBK Games literally is a company, it's an indie studio with just a few employees.

Also as an update, the dev is going to try to create a Linux version before release:

Thank you all for your interest : ) Before relese i will work on a Linux build. But i have to say; I have never build a game for Linux before but i will try to do my best :)

Would be pretty cool if that works out well.

Was looking forward to this. Playing Overcooked 1 was already so cool and funny, now having Overcooked 2 with native Linux support... awesome! Bought!

Yes, please give the Linux port more attention. If it's en par with the Windows version, I'd probably play it more.

Haven't played any card game yet... so I'll give this one a shot.
Nevertheless, I'm looking more forward to the other games Valve has in its pipeline :->
Especially the VR ones, which I hope get Linux support too.

Is DXVK meanwhile safe to use? I'd really like to give it a shot, but I'm still afraid of getting (VAC) banned.

To those who are playing games with DXVK, which games do you play, how often and how long is your session and did you experience any problems so far?

With having Unreal Engine 4.20 also getting Vulkan on Linux in the editor, I hope gamedevs will give it more often a shot:

Count me in for helping testing.

Oh dear, when I see these numbers, I'm so thankful that we get any Linux versions at all.
I really hope we can give Devs the feeling it is worth it, by supporting them, thanking them and spreading out the word of their games.

Awesome progress. The pace of the development of this piece of software is impressive.

Will this be integrated into wine directly like vkd3d?

I guess there is still a risk getting banned when using dxvk in multiplayer games as it replaces some dlls? That's the reason why I haven't tried it yet myself. Would love to try Elite: Dangerous with this on Linux, but I don't want to risk my account.

edit: a note about the nVidia driver 396.24.02, it causes white screens with Unreal Engine 4 games, e.g. with Everspace or RUINER. see here [External Link]
