Arcen Games creators of Bionic Dues, AI War, Skyward Collapse have teased their new game "The Last Federation" which is a space-based mix of strategy and tactics.
They confirmed to me via email that it will infact head to Linux, simply put:
It's great news to see more coming from them over to Linux!
About
The Last Federation is a space-based mix of strategy and tactics in which you control a small mercenary fleet on an unusual mission: the formation of the first and last solar federation. Undertake mercenary contracts, fight pirates, customize ships, research technologies, and use your growing bargaining power to strong-arm planetary governments into doing your will. Battles are quick and vicious, and, like Bionic Dues, the game is easy to pick up and play in quick bursts.
Yours is a very personal mission: not even your own crew knows your true intentions.
We're expecting a private alpha in about a month, and then a general release probably in January. We look forward to sharing more about it with you soon!

They have also now opened a forum for it which has posts for more info, so if you like the sound of it visit the forum.

I have a dev from Nemesys Games on my steam list. His name is scoops. He gave me about 12 steam keys for Fortix 2, to put on my blog http://orkultus.wordpress.com. I also talked to him about Ignite, and future releases coming to Linux. He said that Ignite is getting its iOS release next, and then it will be Linux / Mac. They have not forgotten about it. They said they are already to far into it, to just drop it. So that will be here soon as well. He also says that the future games they come out with will have Linux support.
