The next installment in the classic Monster RPG series, Monster RPG 2 is a turn-based role-playing game with enough variety, plot twists, secrets, and scenery to keep even the old school players coming back for more.

Is it only available to Ubuntu? Is there a way for users of other distos to get it?
Rustybolts Mar 31, 2011
As far as I am aware its for Ubuntu only. Still it cant be long before they build it for other distros surely.

According to Trent's comment posted TuxPlay (http://www.tuxplay.pl/2011/03/monster-rpg-2-wydany/) Linux generic port is quite possible.

Welcome to the forums!
Thats good news for other distro users. I have now bought this game and its not a bad game for the money, so its good to hear other linux users may get chance to get a decent cheap game.

Although not true in this case, the suggestion of something being Ubuntu only because of the software centre is troubling. After all, the Linux market is small enough as it is without dividing it up even more based on distro lines. :eek:
Eddward Apr 1, 2011
That was my thought. I'm currenty running an older Ubuntu that has Software Center but none of the games that are supposed to be available in it. I haven't decided yet, but but my next install is either going to be Gentoo (again) or one of the rolling Debians. rnrnI'm truly crossed with Canonical. It seems they keep trying to balkanize Linux. For what it's worth, I can't really blame Nooskewl since they aren't the one who created the situation, however if I can't buy the game, I won't. It's a shame too. It looks like a nice game.
Eddward Apr 1, 2011
After thinking about it a bit, it might be nice if Nooskewl supported Desura once they get Linux support in place. I'm sure they just want the easy channel. (Of course I'm hoping Desura doesn't go Ubuntu only as well.) They could also see if they could slip into a Humble Bundle. If it's at least a few hours worth of game play, I'd pay more than $3 for it. I like RPGs.rnrnOn a side note, I keep seeing cool Linux gaming site in Polish. I need to find a way to get Google to translate an RSS feed.
Hamish Apr 1, 2011
Yeah, that was my thinking to. The problem is Desura has been dragging its feet with regards to porting to Linux for how long? Despite it being the most requested feature by it's user base?

Hello. A generic Linux port is possible but since it's a one man show now, with me handling and testing the updates myself, it's quite a big job. I could do it though if I could get a couple testers who could test the game on various distros besides Ubuntu, in return for a free copy of the game (and if you do a thorough job, testing credits.) If anyone is interested email me at trent2/at/gamblin.ca. I would be selling the game on http://nooskewl.com, the same way as the Windows version (probably a combo buy one version get them all.)
Hamish Apr 4, 2011
Hey, that sounds tempting, but I can not do anything about that right this second unfortunately. If the offer is still available in a few weeks, I might just try my hand at being your Fedora tester. :D
