Shadowground and Shadowground Survivor does not work on Arch / Chakra. I do not remember why, but I tried to make it work three or four months agi without success.

Just bought Retribution, for 7,49 it's a great deal.

@harfield: I forced "Shadowground Survivor" game to work using 'ldd' (if I remember correctly) command and downloading tons of libraries or so. Of course under Ubuntu, but maybe it helps U.

You need install only missing library. After that games should work fine. Tested on Manjaro (arch based), openmandriva (notebook) and ubuntu 16.10.

Funny thing is, I already own almost everything that's on sale. The stuff I remotely care about, at least.

Beware of the titles that show up on Humble Bundle after selecting Linux as a platform but don't actually have a Steam Linux package, if you care for this kind of thing (e.g. Shadowgrounds series are available for Linux DRM free but not via Steam).

I've tried almost everything on Chakra (Arch fork) and it didn't work. Two years ago I managed to get it to work providing all the missing libs, but sound didn't work. Wine version works fine, but there is some random crash. I believe Shadowground and Survivor can't be qualified as Linux games ; there is an old crappy port that takes ages and a lot of personal effort to make it run, that's not enough for a comercial product. I can expect this kind of work from an open source project or a mod/fork (Diaspora - Freespeace 2 for example), but not from a product I've paid for. Experiences like that turns people against gaming on linux, we need to erase the linux badge from this kind of games. Just saying...

I also saw this on /r/gamedeals
Quoting: GuestVertiginous Golf is actually really fun. Me and a buddy picked it up when it was free on Steam a while back. If you like mini golf and have someone to play with, it's worth the price.
Disagree, the level select 3D room feels really shoddy and other Quality Control seems lacking in other areas.

Funnily enough, the other way round to your comment.. I already have these on Steam (as Windows/Mac titles which I can't played under Linux)... Thinking to buy them *again*, so I get the Linux DRM free goodness that actually works on Linux.
