Realistic racing game 'DRAG' coming to Linux soon, built on Linux and it looks astonishing
20 Jan 2018 at 1:19 am UTC

Oooh! I was looking at their blog just the other day and was a bit saddened that I didn't see a mention of Linux support. Sad no more! The game looks fun and definitely something I want to support.

Sure, they "haven't forgotten", they're just not doing it. It's your average teenager who knows they were supposed to clean their room, they just won't.

Wow, that's quite the style! Putting a more "realistic" story in a cyberpunk setting is also very welcome. I'll be sure to pick this one up :)

Lovely attitude! I couldn't help but buy the game after reading that, even though it'll take a while before I have the time to play it.

The Linux-powered Ataribox Joystick has been revealed, looks delightfully retro and rather stylish

Quoting: DuncIt looks nice, evoking the old VCS stick in the same way the Box does the console, but I'm not convinced it'll be a good controller. The original one was terrible. (Seriously, even back in the day I hated it.) I'm sure there'll be support for other controllers, but they really should design a more traditional gamepad if it's going to be more than a retrogaming device.
Agreed, though this looks like a joystick I'd enjoy playing Lotus III on :D

Looks like the open-world FPS 'The Signal From Tölva' is now on Linux

Quoting: EikeDoes this game have a proper story and ending?
I'm fine with strolling aroung a lonely world - if I'm strolling for a reason...
I haven't played it myself, but I've seen mentions of the nice ending/final explanation the game supposedly has, so it sounds like there's at least a story end; don't know whether that's the end of the game though.

Corpse Party, a story-driven adventure and horror game can now be played on Linux

Quoting: fractalIs this the version that uses binaural audio? I recall playing it with headphones on PSP and was genuinely impressed.
From reading the Steam forums, this version would seem not to be the PSP version, but rather the "original" version. So, no fancy audio effect, a bit different soundtrack, less/different voice over and the original graphics (ie. less anime style and no scene pictures).
Now, I've never played any version of this (though I've wanted to), so I'm purely basing this on the descriptions of others.

A new Steam Client Beta fixes Linux desktop and menu shortcuts, adds pre-compiled GPU shaders for Vulkan

Quoting: loggeThe most annoying thing I find is that you cannot start a "user defined" steam app via command line. I use "roommates" and kicked the bin out, and a link to kodi in... so I am playing "roommates" thousands of hours a year.

By user defined, I mean the "Add program to library" click.
Doesn't "ADD A GAME..."->"Add a Non-Steam Game" do exactly what you want?
It adds the game but there's no command line to tell Steam client to run it. You need GUI.
Ah, I see. I misunderstood the issue then :)

Quoting: wojtek88Have you ever read PSN terms of use? You do know you accepted them and you agreed to them? If so, why do you behave like a child and pretend that you do nothing wrong while breaking the rules you agreed to? ...
FWIW, Terms of Use aren't enforceable by law in any place I know of.
