These guys make fantastic games! I loved SWTG and looking forward to Gunmetal Arcadia. I thought Eldritch was neat, and I'm playing Neon Struct and YHTWTG now, and both are excellent. It's nice that they keep updating the older games too.

SteamWorld Heist Has A First Gameplay Trailer

I loved SteamWorld Dig. Anthill isn't on Linux that I know of, but I did try the Android port (which I think was made with Godot), and it was pretty neat for what it was. Heist looks good, and I'm sure I'll be grabbing it on day one.

GOL Cast: Let's Delve Deep Into Delver

A lot has changed in Delver since the original release. Unfortunately, the wonky gamepad support hasn't been corrected yet, so I haven't delved in as deep as I would like to.

Ubisoft and Linux can't be in the same line, it's almost impossible!
Ubisoft published on Linux many years ago - a retail disc, even. With the Linux client ON the disc! And though Housemarque is listed as the publisher on Steam for Outlast, the game still includes a Ubisoft splash screen, so I'd say that at least partially counts too (at the very least, it counts as much as Microsoft Game Studios titles being on Linux).

Crytek had best not let us down! I'm counting on this engine for this as well as, and more importantly to me, Kingdom Come: Deliverance.

Pillars Of Eternity RPG Released For Linux, Early Port Report Included

It seems like Linux support actually is a relatively high priority, considering they released it simultaneously and the fact that they even released it at all. Your final verdict seems to also indicate this, considering it's a Unity title, and more often than not, they are rife with problems on Linux; it seems they may have actually tested it, too.

More likely is that they don't feel it's worth giving out review codes to the Linux blogs considering how the readership is a fraction of an already fairly insignificant fraction of the potential customers. But that's just a guess, and likely how I would look at it if I were in their position.

BioShock Infinite Released For Linux, Thanks To Virtual Programming
19 Mar 2015 at 6:09 pm UTC

OK dubigrasu, you'll be happy to know that I'm supporting VP by buying directly on Steam. Why, if I dislike VP/eON and didn't care for the game itself? Because of a) the sale, b) I have a need to collect Linux games, and c) ultimately I decided that having my purchase count as a Linux sale matters more than anything else.

Gunmetal Arcadia, A Retro Platformer From The Developer Of Super Win The Game Public Test Build Released

I bought Super Win the Game on the weekend and just finished it last night. Excellent game, and superb Linux port with zero issues for me. The controls (on a gamepad) were totally nailed, too! I think Gunmetal Arcadia will be an insta-buy for me.
