Good news everyone! Among The Sleep is now playable on Linux after yesterday's patch which fixed the major graphical glitches for OpenGL.
Recently we highlighted how Among The Sleep was unplayable on Linux, and when we got in touch with the developers they did not they were working on it, and they have delivered on their promise. I sure hope next time they do some more varied testing for their next game.
The patch notes below:
Now we can easily recommend giving it a go, so check out Among The Sleep on Steam.
UPDATE: It seems new bugs have cropped up making it unplayable later on, so we are again waiting on fixes for the Linux version.
About
Among the Sleep is a first person horror adventure, in which you play a two year old child. After waking up in the middle of the night to mysterious sounds, you start exploring the dark looking for comfort.
The game explores horror through atmosphere and exploration, not with scores and combat systems. In Among the Sleep you’re vulnerable, scared, and trying to make sense of the world.

In other news, Eador: masters of the broken world was patched today still doesn't work. Guess developers need some time getting used to Linux (or they now think its not worth the hassle).
