Cheese talks - Humble Bundle
15 Apr 2012 at 5:00 am UTC

Besides the competition, which would be good if they did linux games, the humble bundle themselves are getting to frequently released and thus removing some of the "special" from it. I also feel that mixing android and desktop games, or maybe should I say apps and games, won't work in the long run. There are some exceptions like the Cogs which works great on tablet or desktop but others like Snuggle Truck are best for a tablet while Avadon is simply best played on a desktop.

It's sad to hear Basilisk has the same problem as Kot had, good for KoT though that he does not stand alone anymore in this.

As for Liam's question, has my view changed, it has over time, a few things contributed to that:
- KoT story
- the dropping of desura keys (yes its the developers thing but HiB tells them to make a linux client so it can tell them to also add desura)
- to many bundles to little standout games in them

And lets not forget kickstarter eating into my gaming budget.

Kickstarter fever
22 Mar 2012 at 5:00 pm UTC

a few comment :)

- Heroes of Forevia / Anthony, the extra 10.000 for Linux sounds weird without your explanation, but with it I can see that we gone get a Linux port at some stage, depending on the cash it might be at launch.... on the other hand we still got wine and since I do have fond gauntlet memories consider yourself backed... clicking right now :)

- The Banner saga, looks also promising, will wait on their Linux thoughts.

On another note, I am looking at how come Banner saga is so well funded while Heroes of Forevia is not... both games should appeal to enough people and looking at the video the biggest difference I see is that the one shows actual (or I think it is) game footage while the other does not.... could that make such a difference or is it just one getting the word out better then the other ?
