Get thinking, as Feral Interactive are teasing another new Linux port
2 Oct 2017 at 3:25 pm UTC Likes: 2

There are also some other sequels to games Feral already ported... like:
  • Middle-earth: Shadow of War

  • Life is Strange: Before the Storm


Don't know if the radar points to one of these... but I wish they do ;)
If it'll be Tomb Raider, I'm happy with that too ^^

RUINER still may not come to Linux, encountering technical issues

They should conference with Rockfish Games, as they were able to solve the technical issues with Unreal Engine 4 and Everspace on Linux ;)
Maybe they have similar issues.

Quoting: ShmerlSo far Linux really lacks games like Freelancer [External Link] (which had a pretty good balance of story and action).
Oh yeah, I loved Freelancer!
Great graphics in that time and I also liked the story a lot. It also has multiplayer which some people even play today.
Speaking of multiplayer, a coop mode for everspace would be pretty awesome too ;)

Indeed, this game is a milestone on Linux. There is no other game like it available right now.
I really hope the sales on our platform are significant, so they see it is worth it. Even though probably all Kickstarter keys won't count to the Linux share.
And I was right, Rockfishgames as a german indie developer kept their promise. Now it's "only" a matter of polishing it, make it run with AMD ootb and we'll get the tux icon on the steam store.
I'm so happy with this game, I really enjoy it... even so much I was able to reach the end of sector 6 with my 7th run already.

Best Everspace game... no, that order is wrong... best space game ever ;)

Quoting: CorbenWhich other game wanted to have a +1 thread for Linux recently, to see the demand? How did that turn out?
Other Side Entertaintment studio (developers of Underworld Ascendant) made a poll on their own site, but before making any promises. And after feedback, they included Linux in their crowdfunding goals. Recently, Oxide Games made one for Ashes of Singularity.
Yep, I was referring to Ashes of Singularity. Their thread [External Link] has now 61 pages :O. Was it enough?

I have a certain feeling, that they are making fun of us :S:
Nevertheless I've put my +1 in the thread, disregarding the steam forum rules ^^

Let's see how this turns out.

The beautiful space combat game 'EVERSPACE' finally lands on Linux in an unofficial form

Quoting: MayeulCWell, that's not really an option, you just declare a new environment variable that will contain the original command, and then proceed to launch the executable directly :)

I guess it could work as well with echo "%command%"; ./RSG/Binaries/Linux/RSG-Linux-Shipping 
Ah yes of course, you are right. So easy, I didn't realize :) Thanks for pointing that out.

Quoting: ShmerlI didn't really follow the whole thread. So does it work with Mesa git or not?
People are claiming it works with recent Mesa and AMD GPUs.

E.g. from this post [External Link]:
it's running wonderfully on Mesa 17.2 (padoka stable ppa) on Ubuntu 16.04 on an RX580
Not sure about newest git Mesa, but if there is no regression, I would suppose it works there too.

As N30N mentioned in his post [External Link] on the Steam forums, it might be easier to just set this launch option of Everspace, instead of editing the start script:

ignore="%command%" ./RSG/Binaries/Linux/RSG-Linux-Shipping

Didn't know about the "ignore" option so far. Learning never stops! :)
