Editorial: An open letter to Valve on why they should keep on embracing Linux

Great letter, BTRE.

Quoting: FirearmsUnitedThe world around us gets darker and uglier every day and there is nothing we can do against it. I really hope that at least our gaming world will remain an open, creative and easy to use place where people of every kind can enjoy a very diverse catalogue of games.

Well said, FirearmsUnited! More free software, more collaboration.

X4: Foundations for Linux will not see a beta at release today, still coming though

I've wanted to get into the X series partially because Spaceships!, but also for Egosoft's excellent history of supporting Linux. I played a little bit of X Rebirth but didn't find myself engrossed. One ship should be enough to have a good time. I'll keep an eye on this, it will probably be ready before Star Citizen has a completely working client under wine. ;)

Wow, truly open source! I like the balancing elements. I may have to break my 'no-kickstarter' rule. I wonder if kickstarter prevents them from offering pre-sales on itch or steam during their fund raising period.

Sigma Theory is a new take on the espionage game genre from the creator of Out There

I've played about 6 hours of out there: Omega edition. It's a fun little game, 2D graphics, felt like a 'choose your own adventure' story with a heap of RNG. This one looks a little more advanced, I like the theme. On to the wishlist it goes.

Sweet, I've been wanting to try this one out. Thanks for the key.

Colony building sim RimWorld just had a huge 'Polish the Cannons' update
28 Aug 2018 at 7:57 pm UTC

Rimworld is great! I think it is already a 1.0 release as far as quality, but hey, I'll take more development :) Very stable, tons of fun, I think I have about 40 hours in it so far.

Space RPG 'Star Traders: Frontiers' to leave Early Access next week

I enjoyed their android game enough to pick this one up. Honestly, I haven't had enough time to play it, but it feels very similar. Overall I'm happy, I just need to cut out some time to play it more!

We've teamed up with GOG for another fantastic giveaway: Surviving Mars & Iconoclasts

I would like Surviving Mars if possible.

Linux joke:

At dinner at a Japanese restaurant, the person next to me said she wanted to work with abused children. Since we had not yet received the tempura, I responded, "If battered shrimps are your interest, we should have some here soon."
