If you're a bit low on funds, you might like to know that Steam is doing a 2016 Halloween sale with some nice Linux games on offer.
Here's some choice picks for you:
7 Days to Die - 60% off
System Shock 2 - 75% off
Oxenfree - 75% off (I've been told this is really good, so I just picked up a copy)
Layers of Fear - 50% off
Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War II - 75% off
Mad Max - 50% off
Shadow of Mordor - 50% off
Company of Heroes 2 - 75% off
Black Mesa - 60% (only just came to Linux!)
There's plenty more, but those are some of what I think are the best deals going. Quite amazing that Mad Max is already 50% off and it has only recently come to Linux. Here's a chance for people on the fence to pick the game up cheaper, while still supporting Feral and Linux gaming directly from Steam.
I've been told great things about Oxenfree, so I've personally purchased it and I'm excited to finally give it a go, it's been on my list for ages. I've also picked up Black Mesa now it's on Linux.
What have you picked up? I do love a good sale. Article taken from GamingOnLinux.com.

Quoting: morbiusExpected Life is Strange to be on sale, disappointed that it isn't. No other game I want is on significant sale either. I should really pick up Metro Redux games, but I won't be able to play them before I buy a new computer anyway, so there is no rush.
I've played both Metro games and Life is Strange. If your hardware isn't good enough for the Metro games, it definitely isn't good enough for Life is Strange. Both Metro Redux games performed very well on my GTX 860M, but Life is Strange I had to turn all of the settings to low in order to play it at a decent framerate. Hope that helps :)

Well,
Painkiller Complete Pack - 90% off
It looks like that is the only Painkiller pack which includes all DLCs for Hell and Damnation. It looks like I will be killing hordes of enemies this week after beating Black Mesa. ;-)

Quoting: KeyrockWoot! Black Mesa!
Damnit! Just bought 11 games on Steam (10 for Linux, 1 for the Vive) then I read 'Black Mesa!' and thought "Crap, forgot that one.. then bought more.. spending about 120 bucks...
Still need to win Mad Max!

Quoting: km3kIt's not Halloween-related, but I'm buying the three "Let's Explore" games for my kids since it's $2.99 for all three. That's 80% off the normal bundle, or 86% off buying them individually.
They run on Linux "natively" (the Steam version uses ScummVM) and they run very well. These games are kids exploration/learning games with lots of silly environment interactions. I'd estimate that they're good for ages 3-8.
I recently came across the old CD version of Let's Explore the Airport, got it running in ScummVM and my kids love it. I was planning on just getting the other two, but right now it's cheaper to buy all three on Steam than to buy only two.
Edit: They also run well in the Android version of ScummVM. These old point and click games work well on tablets.
I do remindber this studio when i was a kid... Maybe this package could interest some of us : http://store.steampowered.com/sub/42723/

Bought Warhammer 2 (3 expansions)

Bought Black Mesa

I am somewhat interested in Max Max but TBH I'm not sure if I'm the target audience, the driving looks fun and it looks like what Final Fantasy XV was supposed to be, except actually cool, I just dunno - it looks like Borderlands 3 to me.
As it is I got a gigantic backlog but how can I turn down a good sale?
I hope Warhammer 2 is a better StarCraft 2 but for Linux, we'll see - DLing now.

Well... Feral gets nothing for their Linux budget if you buy from such sites... Why do you guys embrace these kinds of practices and support people who don't support linux gaming! Either buy them from Feral Store for Linux or Steam for Linux because that's the only way that Feral gets rewarded for bringing games to Linux. If you don't want to spend so much wait for the sales on Feral store and Steam. Otherwise you're just supporting Windows gaming.

Quoting: AnxiousInfusionMy store page is properly filtering Linux-only titles ever since adding it to preferences. I wonder why it doesn't work for so many other people.
Oh, that's new. Did it, mostly works. I don't mind having a few (like in "minority") Windows-only titles appearing in the "Now Available/Recommended for you"-Box, but if it's all of them -- like this morning, before setting that preference -- it's just a nuisance.
