It's a game that utterly filled my twitter feed with love when it came out, and I was quite jealous we didn't get to experience it. Seems we now get to experience it in fully released glory with all episodes.
Thanks to SteamDB again:

Just for the record again: Being on SteamDB doesn't mean it's confirmed, but likely.
About the game
Life Is Strange is a five part episodic game that sets out to revolutionise story based choice and consequence games by allowing the player to rewind time and affect the past, present and future.
You are Max, a photography senior who saves her old friend Chloe by discovering she can rewind time. The pair soon find themselves exposed to the darker side of Arcadia Bay as they uncover the disturbing truth behind the sudden disappearance of a fellow student.
Meanwhile, Max begins to have premonitions as she struggles to understand the implications of her power. She must quickly learn that changing the past can sometimes lead to a devastating future. Article taken from GamingOnLinux.com.

QuoteI have ported Life Is Strange to Linux during my free time. I’d say it’s more than 90% complete, even though there are still a few graphical glitches. However, for a public release to ever happen, someone will have to pay for the third-party libraries we use. They’re expensive, and have a per-platform licensing cost. This means that even if someone has bought the game on Steam for Windows, the publisher will need to pay in order to offer a Linux version that this person will then get for free. The only way this works is if someone in power does the math and decides it’s worth it. I have no other suggestion than wait and see, but really, I’m doing my part.

Quoting: ziabiceI played the game under WINE, it works very well (it's an Unreal 3 game). Overall the game is not that great, my vote is 6/10.
Story is filled with cliches, ambiental interaction is near zero, you'll move into corridors and on rails, the story development is very slow. Some good characterization here and there, but nothing memorable. I was so bored I don't played the fifth episode (the game anyway ends at fourth episode).
I suggest you to buy it when on sale.
Yep, it works in Wine, and I like the game. I think the story is quite memorable.

Shame I already bought it at Christmas as my friend got me the first episode, I borrowed my mums laptop and couldn't stop playing, It was also a game I never thought would come to Linux.
The game is amazing in my opinion and loved it to the end.

Quoting: rkfgQuoting: chelobakaWhat's your bet on porter? LinkHmm, Feral? That would be unexpected. Could this hint be it? -e^(i+π) = ?, is it related to time travel? The two main mathematical constants and an imaginary unit, what could it be...
Don't you people read previous comments? Like mine (count 5 backwards).
A Dev (Sam on the Steam forums) of the game has been porting the game on personal time, but actual release is not very likely currently, since it involves per os middleware licencing costs.

Quoting: elmomDon't you people read previous comments? Like mine (count 5 backwards).I read that and I was aware of that fact even before. I based my guess on the quoted link to a certain post. You see, the problem is the game isn't being ported only to Linux but also to Mac. Your post about Sam doesn't say anything about Mac so it's possible they outsourced the task to Feral (maybe gave them what they did for Linux to lower the costs).

But where is the confirmation that a port will be released. As an actual dev has stated it being unlikely not long ago. How is what I quoted not a much more plausible explanation for the SteamDB entry?
