Legend of Grimrock 2 the sequel to the awesome first game is now officially being worked on!
Really great news if you like dungeon crawling games with excellent graphics, I loved the first game!
The developers mentioned that a DLC/expansion wouldn't do it justice due to everything they have put in so they are doing a full blown number 2!

I hope they actually release the first game on Steam for Linux. Also, no word on there being an actual Linux version.

Also, no word on there being an actual Linux version.So true, they ignoring the posts on steam forum and on their own, they got the linux build from HiB from 23-12-12 so why not post it ? And no mention of linux on LoG2.... I will probably end up buying it and use Wine, just love the old DM games :)

If you buy it from the Humble Store widget on their site, you get Steam keys *and* a Linux build (best of both worlds). That's a way better offer than the USC, IMO.

Yes, you get a Steam key (like I did from HIB), but the developers haven't actually uploaded a Linux binary, so the game sits in your library, unable to be installed ("Not available for your platform.")

Ah, sorry. I wasn't meaning to imply that it was available for Linux on Steam yet, just that you get a native DRM free build and a Steam key that will work if they ever make it available on Steam for Linux, which makes it a much better option than the USC.

That's a way better offer than the USC, IMO.+1 to this, USC is just another way of locking yourself into a platform I refuse to buy anything on it to have to be locked to Ubuntu (even though i use Ubuntu i don't wish to be locked to it).
I just hope LoG does come to Steam. I am doubtful on them replying to my email asking about it.

Honestly, I'd rather an answer to a different question, namely "LoG2 on Linux or no?"

The shell file for LOG1 in HIB installs and runs just fine.
