Speaking on their forum only 6 hours ago about the Linux version:

The game itself was Kickstarted in January of 2012, their kickstarter gave no mention of Linux support and previously they were only gouging interest from Linux users on their greenlight page with no promises, so it's really great to see them do it anyway!

QuoteWe're going to hold off until tomorrow to put out the update/release with linux as we've found some of the memory leaks that have plagued us for a while. :)

I've been watching this game for over a year now. They have missed their target release date by just about the same time. My buddy picked it up on early access about a month ago. He said it was alright but missing content. Now that they have a Linux version coming I plan to support them and pick it up. As far as I know it's just 2 guys writing this. Their campaign didn't pull in a lot of funds so I'm not sure if they are doing this on the side or dedicating 40 hours a week. I believe the engine is built from scratch as well so that can draw the development process out.
