Fistful of Frags promised that when they got greenlit to be on Steam that they would port to the newer Source SDK for Linux, they have delivered and it's an awesome western inspired FPS game. Funny thing is when we first pointed it out I accidently put an article out calling it "Fistful of Fags", now that would be a very different game...
I've tested it out a bit today and performance was great, the problem is there are very few servers and all seem to be full, luckily you can do a local game with bots, but we need to sort that server issue folks! I am sure once it picks up a bit of steam (see what I did there?) that more servers will pop-up and if not we will have to roll our own! I will be looking into how hard that will be today as I found the game pretty fun myself. If people have suggestions on where to do a server for it cheaply (and easily!) let us know in the comments right away.
Update: We have a server 107.170.45.232
About the Game
Fistful of Frags born years ago as a FPS Wild West themed modification for Source engine. It has been completely renewed for its Steam release, paying special attention to combat mechanics. Please note that current build lacks certain features and maps from past versions, as we are hoping to continue the work once the community grows.

For me this is the best 3rd party Source modification I've ever played. I played it in 2008 and had to quit because I left Windows permanently. I'm happy I can play it again.
Just DM and TDM so far, but it has been very fun already!

Come on Linux gamers, have some fun! Yeehaaaw!

You can always use the option to join a server automatically when a spot gets available whilst shooting them wild west bots.

I will be attempting to install some source mods over today, or server admin Levi was awesome enough to get metamod working putting me one step closer.

Awesome game. I just think it's funny, cause in the most recent changelog it said that the problem with bots doesn't leave when player joins was fixed. Still I can't join servers with 10 "free" slots and 10 bots in it. It says it's full. :P
