This is awesome to see, people in the community have sent both Feral Interactive & Aspyr Media some little care packages full of treats.
Since Aspyr Media have yet to bring us the new Civilization game, it looks like Linux users have been guilt-tripping the porters into speeding up, or just sending them into a sugar coma.
So... this came in the mail this morning. Thank you, you lovely Linux people you. The guilt trip has been accepted. ;D #NomNomNom pic.twitter.com/c4VaOOIXWJ

Who can forget Feral Interactive? The porting team that has been pushing out port after port!
Thanks @beefsack, we just received your tasty cupcakes! Here's a 'before' pic of our devs tucking in... we'll spare you the messy aftermath. pic.twitter.com/6jtlrSgTD9

Good stuff community people, more of this please!
You would be surprised how much sending your thanks actually helps, people are too quick to send hate to developers who take extra time to get things done. Developers are human too remember.

Quoting: EikeQuoting: SilelmotBut am I wrong to say all this positive developement across the gaming-scene of linux started with steamos?
Without Valve's involvement, I would still run this other OS for gaming.
This needed to be done :D And what Feral and Aspyr are doing also needs to be done, we would need a few more companies like them and we would probably have all the AAA titles :D Big cheers to Feral Interactive, Aspyr Media, Valve! You guys make this whole thing possible to have a free open-source OS and still play great games like we would on "you know what"! :D

Appreciate their efforts by buying the games - in a way that actually earns them the deserved money.
(The beefsack move is still a fantastic idea.)
Quoting: ellieferalWe were so chuffed to be sent the cupcakes. Such a cool gesture. And they arrived just in time for elevenses! (Yes, we are very British.)
That's so British, I had to look it up...

And here I always thought that elevenses was just a Hobbit thing.
Isnt that Loki aka Tom Hiddleston?

Too bad they aren't as active in the community, wish they were. That would be the missing piece of the triumvirate.
