So, if you are living under a rock let me remind you on something: Gearbox president Randy Pitchford stated he would talk to some people about a possibility of a Linux port for Borderlands 2. Sadly though as I expected from Randy it probably won't happen.
Starsector previously known as Starfarer is a game I have been following since early 2011 and I am glad to say it's still being fully worked on. Starsector is an open-world single-player space-combat, roleplaying, exploration and economic game.
