Dead Mage say no to paid DLC, Children of Morta to get free upgrades soon

That's great news, and I think may have earned them a sale. (Was already on the wishlist, along with TONS of others... But think I'll grab it tonight.)

RetroArch, the front-end app for emulators and more is heading to Steam
16 Jul 2019 at 1:48 pm UTC

Quoting: TheSHEEEPI just wish RetroArch devs would finally develop a UI that doesn't suck when used with mouse & keyboard.
Having to manually scroll through hundreds of N64/SNES/NES/GB/GBA/etc. games (all of which I legally own. Obviously) is slightly annoying, to say the least. Just give me a frickin' text search field like MAME does.
Did you try pushing S to bring up the search field?

Aeon's End is another deck-builder now on Steam, it has some twists to set it apart
5 Jul 2019 at 5:59 am UTC

I backed this on Kickstarter. I love the physical board games in the series, so I had to. That being said, I am not that big a fan of the user interface in this. I wish Nomad or DIGIDICED were the ones to get the rights to this, but what can you do?

Handelabra Games are bringing the deck-builder Aeon's End to Steam with Linux support

Aeon's End is my favourite deck-builder! It's in my top 10 tabletop games, easily.

I just hope their user interface has improved since the alpha demo... In terms of digital adaptations of physical games, I prefer the work of Nomad Games and DIGIDICED. But hey, I backed this on Kickstarter, so, I'm looking forward to it.

One Deck Dungeon celebrates a first anniversary with a sale, it's quite addictive

I previously owned the physical game and didn't really care for it. It's brutally difficult, and extremely luck-based. I don't mind the digital version at a cheap price, but I won't play it much. When this company releases Aeon's End, I will probably play that one quite a bit, since it is one of my top 10 tabletop games.

Hyperspace Delivery Service is leaving Early Access next month, has Linux support

I'm guessing this is unrelated to the old Linux game, Hyperspace Delivery Boy? Looks completely different, anyhow.

Quoting: massatt212waste of a port
Proton already works fine with this
Quoting: massatt212
Quoting: M@GOidFor now, I will only buy properly ported games. Proton is a nice thing to have, for the games in my library that will never see a official port. I'm not giving my money to companies that ignores the Linux market.

#NoTuxNoBux
its good to support the native port
but proton is very good for us, it will be able to play every single game on steam soon thx to DXVK with dx10 and 11 Vk9 if it get games running soon And dgVoodoo
So i rather they work hard on the Proton which will show dev that people are gaming on linux and adapt to Vulkan API which is 1 more step closer to linux support or multi-platform

i get where you are coming from
but proton is the way to go and the first step to getting many off of windows
So let me get this straight. You're saying that "they" (Feral???) should work on Proton INSTEAD OF this native port (or ANY native port, for that matter!), in order to make Proton more robust, which you say will [eventually] help Linux get more support (meaning... native ports???)... Just. What.

In what way?

Vaporum, the very impressive dungeon crawler adds gamepad support
3 Sep 2018 at 5:13 pm UTC

I wishlisted this a while ago, putting most of my attention into Fall of the Dungeon Guardians, which didn't have any native gamepad support (I came up with something that I really liked for the Steam Controller, though). With proper gamepad support in Vaporum, maybe I'll grab it sooner and give it a shot. I hope the DualShock 4 works out of the box with it.

The developer of the dungeon crawler Gloomhaven is keeping an eye on Linux support requests

I really hope it happens. I don't know how close it will be to the board game, but I also don't really care. The board game is the #1-ranked of all time currently, and I can't see that moving any time soon. It isn't MY personal #1, but it is very good. The box is massive, the game is massive, and I don't get to play it as much as I would like. A digital version would be perfect for me.
