I just picked this up off Steam last night. Haven't had a chance to play yet, but it looks like fun.

I really hope they release a keyboard with the numpad, and dedicated media keys.

I found a game on Steam on sale, Star Wars one that worked well under Proton, so I grabbed it. It's a useful feature.

Quoting: vskyeAwesome news, since I bought this game already.., anticipating a Linux release. It's rated as Platinum on ProtonDB as is btw.
I'm not going to tell other people how to spend their money.

Buying on Linux and playing through Proton counts as a Linux sale, which is good, and shows that there's a market of Linux gamers. Sales on Linux after they've released a Linux version show that it's profitable to support Linux. If they'll get the sale anyway, without providing any support, then there's less incentive for them to give that support. It's the support costs that scare devs, and they'd really like to know that they're going to get their money back.

Just something to think about.
I totally agree, and that's what I normally do. This one was one of those exceptions for some reason.

My normal games, like Left 4 Dead2, and Race The Sun. I even got around to playing BroForce and Classic Racers..., slowly working though my games on Steam. ;)

Ok, this is pretty cool, especially for younger kids. Price isn't bad either, at only $100.00 US.
