I already gave up the hope and thought: Damn, I payed another windows only development.
Lets hope they really release a linux version now.

I think the game to really report about is "The Talos Principle" not this teaser mini game that is just made to advertise the other game.

UT3 teached me to never preorder anything until there is a working linux version available for real!

I sadly had to stop spending money on kickstarter and other crowdfunding projects because too many of them did not show a (promised) linux version.
But even when its released I often try to save money :-/. Rust for example was a lot cheaper on ebay for me ....

In general ist easy for me to not buy before a linux version is released. Simply because I have no Windows. Wine might be a option sometimes, but you never know if things really work and how long they will work, so I stopped using this too.

Thats why I especially hate closed source! All closed source things are doomed to get lost in history, because there code gets "lost" over the years. One day the owner has no more interest in it and throws it away.
The binarys are nothing more than a shadow.

I want a copyright were people get forced to give their code to a official "registry" and in return they get the rights of a copyright of their software. After some years ( 10? or 20? ) the source should be free and available to everyone! It's like patents which also ensure that knowledge does not get lost ...
If they don't register their code their software should not have a copyright protection, they are on their own then. THIS is something I would really like to see.

Quoting: PCCSunriseWhat about Mandate and GAE in the Glest category? Oldstyle Glest is way behind MG, GAE, or Mandate in their respective focuses.

GAE had no changes for months now. There is absolutly no forum activity, so I think this project is dead. GAE still has no working multiplayer and so on, its more some kind of techdemo than somehting ready to play in my opinion.

The Mandate Engine is a one person project based on GAE. Like GAE its not a game( yet), just an engine and I think its VERY experimental has no working multiplayer and so on. I think it focuses on completly different gameplay in the end.

So both projects are really nothing for players looking at their current state.
