Airship Dragoon Will Come To Linux

Airship Dragoon (Desura, IndieGameStand) is an interesting one, it features turn-based squad combat with a tile based grid for airship movement.

The developer confirmed to us via twitter that they are going to look into porting it!

@gamingonlinux Yes, I am going to look into porting Airship Dragoon to Linux.

It's also looking for votes on Steam's greenlight, so go spare a vote.

Looks pretty good, I like the mix of themes within it and the mix between the 3d battles and the tile movement with your airship is pretty cool.
