It's been another few months since I asked this question, so let's see what you have all been up to recently! There's so many games on Linux now we are spoilt for choice.
Faeria is truly one not to miss out on, not only is it a good answer to not having Hearthstone on Linux, but it's also healing my wounds over Scrolls never officially coming to Linux and then getting shut down. The hook in Faeria is that you build the board as you play.
I keep reading comments that Linux gaming is pretty much stagnating and not worth investing in because it is still at around 1% in the Steam Hardware Survey. So I decided to try and find some numbers.
Knights and Merchants was originally a LinuxGamePublishing (RIP) title, and sadly the port source code must have gone with it. Topware Interactive now have a Linux beta available on Steam that uses Wine.
The time of waiting is nearly over, or so they say. A member of the Rocket League team mentioned on the Steam forum it will be due very soon at the end of Q1 2016.
Interstellar Marines was a seriously promising FPS game that would have single player, co-op play and online versus multiplayer. Sadly, they have had to let staff go and rely on interns right now as they seek more funding.
The game is available DRM free via Humble Bundle and on Steam, and is already playable from start to finish, but is being kept in Early Access while full English voiceovers and text translations are being added.
Great news FPS fans! Arma 3 will see an update on the Linux port to version 1.54 tomorrow! Not quite the current version, but it's a step closer and there's more good news.
What a day to be a Linux gamers! DiRT Rally is also now showing signs that it will be ported to Linux. Another great racing game I have wanted to play, and our first proper Rally game.
Another game I have really wanted to play, but didn't think it would come to Linux. Life Is Strange is a well reviewed story game based on based choice and consequence.
I've been looking forward to trying out Balrum since seeing it on a crowdfunding site some time ago, and now it has had a day-1 release on Linux I got a chance to play with it.
I asked on twitter for developers to get in touch about their games, and first up is Quest of Dungeons from Upfall Studios. A turn based dungeon crawler game featuring a good old 16-bit retro artistic look.
This time around I am taking a look at a game I picked up some time ago for a Friday Livestream simply because it was cheap. So, let's go to Mars in Sol 0: Mars Colonization!
SpeedRunners is a rather popular Early Access multiplayer running game that pits 4 players against each other. There's been a lot of people asking for a Linux version, and they have begun to deliver.
After picking up Factorio based on some users high praise of it, I have ended up putting way more hours into it than I thought possible. Here’s some thoughts on it.
