TowerFall Ascension is a highly praised indie game originally exclusive to the Ouya. Thankfully it is no longer exclusive and may even come to Linux.
It does look pretty fun and I love how manic it is, luckily the developer reached out to users on the Steam forum and had this to say:
Source, so feel free to go there and mention how you would buy it if it was on Linux.
About
TowerFall Ascension is the definitive version of the hit archery combat game. Inspired by classics from the golden age of couch multiplayer, it's a 4-player local party game centering around hilarious, intense versus matches. The core mechanics are simple and accessible, but hard to master and combat is fierce. Loot treasure chests for game-changing power-ups, master the art of catching arrows out of the air, or descend on your foes and stomp them into submission. TowerFall is best played competitively with friends, cross-legged on the floor within punching distance of each other.
New in Ascension is the 1- or 2-player co-op Quest mode. Players work together, fighting off a variety of monsters and enemy archers across the land of TowerFall. It's a new adventure to explore when you don't have more friends handy to square off against.
New features in TowerFall Ascension include:
I really hope it does come to Linux, would be a fantastic co-op game with a couple of game-pads on a Steam Machine. For Steam Machines to succeed local co-op games like this are needed in my opinion. Article taken from GamingOnLinux.com.
