Great! I like the style - very slick.

This looks a little like "Pictopix" or "Paint it Back" in concept, which were both quite good.

I have played an embarrassing number of hours of picross games ;-)
Nonogram - Master's Legacy is great, too.

Got all 3 of those games at 100%, need more!

Valve dev clarifies what some of their upcoming and recent Linux work is actually for

Quoting: rustybroomhandleI still want to know what the mission is with all of this. Not technically, but from a business perspective.

I get it, Linux customers are paying customers, but Valve have contracted several companies, individuals, fulltime employees, contact with GPU vendors etc. This seems like way more financial and time investment than what our meagre 1-2% is worth.
Independence and a service to users and developers/publishers by offering a platform that supports the game. That's a lot of value.

Great package and just a steal. Darksiders and Yakuza alone for 1€ each?

Nice to see that it's gonna be a Linux native, but the game itself looks like it's been done before :unsure:

Kinda worried about the future honestly... so much fragmentation, everybody wants its own thing.

Lots of backtracking...
Interesting, thanks for the info. I've played and completed Hollow Knight before and I loved it. I'll check out Minoria.
I don't think there's that much backtracking to be honest and in the latest update/DLC (haven't played it yet) they added more fast travel stations.

Quoting: ageresFrankly, I didn't like this game much when I played it with Proton. Too difficult, slow and simply boring. It looks good but it's painful to play it.
Could you go into some more detail about what parts you found boring? I'm considering picking this up...I love Dark Souls and Metroid games so it sounds right for me.
I found the beginning to be a bit slow, but it gets way better. I'd absolutely recommend it.

Quoting: FaalhaasIt was on Steam sale not that long ago. I should've would've could've bought it, if I knew this in advance. :) Ah well, next time.
Was even part of the Humble Monthly a while ago, so I got it for $1. Pretty great game.
