Pixel Piracy, A Pirate Sandbox Sim Gains Better Linux Support, Yarrrr!

Pixel Piracy already has a Linux version out for a while now, but they have just realised a patch they have been working on for some-time fixing start-up issues for Linux & Mac, yarrr maties, land ahoy!

You need to opt-into the beta on Steam to be able to get it, I know I know it's a bit odd to have an Early Access title make you go into a beta of a beta, but it works.

Big fan of sandbox games like this that offer vast amounts of re-playability, and who doesn't have some secret desire to be a pirate? Those who get seasick are excused.

Patch notes:

QuoteFeatures
Own ship now have lifebar, if lifebar reaches 0 then the ship will sink!
Bug Fixes
Fixed 3 BUGS that cause LINUX & MAC builds not function properly!

You guys take care! Remember to reinstall MAC and LINUX clients if they are not working :) (dont forget to opt to the linux/mac beta -> properties -> betas)
