About
Every new game of UnEarth Initiative begins with your ship suffering an unfortunate crash landing on an alien world - a testament to the United Earth Alliance's interest in its colonization program and in your personal safety. Each game takes place on a procedurally generated world, where you'll try to survive by digging deep to build an underground base, finding your own food sources, exploring the outer reaches of the planet, and dealing diplomatically (or aggressively) with a variety of alien life you discover there.
Features
You don't often see someone talk about stretch goals, try it and then straight up put Linux in, so that's put the developers up in my books a little hooray! Article taken from GamingOnLinux.com.

QuoteWe'd been holding off on promising UnEarth for Linux because we've never made a game run on Linux before and we didn't know how much trouble it would be. But we decided to give it a shot... And it turns out getting the game running on Linux caused us exactly zero-point-zero units of trouble*. So we are pleased to officially announce that UnEarth is now a PC/Mac/Linux title!
