Nice. Played this game on Stadia and found it entirely entertaining. Will be nice to have a spare backup copy on Steam in case Google ever decides to shut Stadia down.

I love that the overwhelming majority of comments on the Kickstarter page linked from the article here are positive and well-wishing. Goes to show that if you cannot or will not complete a project, you can still leave it behind in a way that does not burn bridges.

"No, we’ve tested this! EAC works fine on these platforms. Thanks to Valve and the Proton team for all their hard work."

Kudos to them for this though, yeah? I mean, how many other developers / publishers have folks practically begging for exactly this and not even getting so much as a "yes" or "no" answer, and here these folks just go and do it.

While I used to be a huge fan of Unreal Engine, Epic done burnt this bridge down with me a long time ago. I'm sticking with Godot engine for the forseeable future.

Quoting: RTherenI vote to officially rename year 2022 to Bizzaro Year.

I know, right? What's up with that? It's like the crazy is more contagious than the COVID was…

Quoting: scaine

Quoting: GroganSteam is really an awful program on Linux. It should get a complete rewrite instead of the cobbled together kludge that it is.

All its gyrations and spinning wheels on startup, culminates in an absolutely sickening, bloated, fragile, chrome browser-based UI.

I'm not sure having the source code to the client would help you :-)

I don't think anyone could argue that it's not "cobbled together kludge", but I don't see what you mean by "bloated" or "fragile". I can't think of many features it offers that I don't use (pretty much the reason I'm a Steam-focused gamer), and it's never crashed on me in coming up 9 years of every day gaming, so I'm not seeing "fragile" at all.

I've personally had the occasional issue or glitch with Steam over the years, but they are at least becoming increasingly rare these days, so at least they're clearly working on it (however slowly "Valve Time™" continues to run).

I'm simply going to actively avoid buying from any publisher that implements this. It's not as if there isn't a zillion-and-one other publishers out there that actually want my money.
