The Great Whale Road, a game with turn-based tactical battles and RPG elements where you build up a settlement has released. I took a look to see if I could be a good jarl.
This slipped by me, not to be confused with the VR titles, Serious Sam HD: The Second Encounter is now supported in Croteam's updated Fusion engine and it features Vulkan and Linux support.
A Linux version of EVERSPACE might finally be on the horizon, as the developers shared more details on the bug and a user on Steam pointed the developer to a possible workaround for now.
If you like your weird games with no speech, check out One Eyed Kutkh which has been released for free on Steam. It's based on the fairy tales of the Far North, apparently.
