I have been really looking forward to playing Legend of Grimrock 2 soon. Unfortunately, the game is not available for Linux yet, and as it seems it's not certain whether we will see it on Linux at all. I have emailed the developers asking about Linux availability, and this is the response I got:
Juho Salila (Almost Human Games)
Hey Kamil,
Unfortunately we can't promise a linux port at this moment.
It's up to you to deduce how likely we are to see a Linux version in the future, but it certainly won't be soon.
Maybe, if there's a strong support under this article, I can send a link back to them and it might convince them a bit more that the demand is here. Or maybe you have better ideas. Anyway, this is really bad news for dungeon crawling fans. :(
Some you may have missed, popular articles from the last month:
told everybody to buy it.
I sure hope they port, as the saying goes "no tux, no bux". I'm okay with that saying.
back from a clear commitment to Linux?
Well, it could also be that "Almost Human Games" never were really committed
to Linux and the port was only necessary to get covered in the Humble Indie Bundle.
With the success of LoG getting covered in a HiB might not be required anymore and,
thus, a Linux port is not a high priority anymore.
I know, I'm a bit pessimistic latley.
Wine gave me terrible performance and random crashes that, because the game doesn't auto save, meant I had to cling to the few crystals dotted about the more open world map.
Is not good to have your first game for all platforms and then develop your 2nd game for just one platform.
Anyway I am not a game developer and I will never understand the way they are thinking but if I was I would support from the start all platforms :><:
(Why did registering with my Steam account on an English site take me to a sign-up screen in French? I'm grateful it wasn't in Norwegian.)
