You can find the post here, where the main developer said they will look to put the Linux version on Steam when issues are sorted with it.
The person doing the Linux builds stated they are hoping to do Vulkan builds thanks to Unity, so I am looking forward to that.
The game itself is actually free, so that's pretty great to see.
About the game (Official)
BallisticNG is a free anti-gravity racing game that takes the genre back to basics and aims to deliver a similar experience to the original Wipeout games on the Playstation One. Coupled with the gameplay is an art style that seeks to completely mimic that retro 90s Playstation look with a few extras thrown in.
You are a pilot in the 2159 Anti-Gravity League and you can choose to race for a variety of corporations all looking to get their own outcomes from the race. The game comes with a large array of tracks with five increasingly fast speed classes. Each team is configured for different play-styles, all have their pros and cons and it’s up to you to find which one you like!

Woaw, how come I've never heard of it before !?
It looks amasing and captured the original feeling of wipeout.

There's no way this isn't F-Zero inspired. Even the music is similar.

The music is closer to F-Zero-GX but totally misses the inversion/pipes/free-flight sections from what I can see.

? The physics, ships, music, etc. are nothing like F-Zero/F-Zero GX/AX. IT is 100% Wipeout. Hope it adds more than what it seems, a clone of Wipeout.

Was never a fan of WipeOut myself... much preferred Rollcage!
I vaguely remember there being an in development Rollcage 'clone' a while back - can't remember if it was Linux though! (Also can't remember what it was called... :S:
That being said, this does look pretty snazzy. Will give it a go later

It's Grip, in fact available on early access on steam. But sadly devs stated they probably won't be able to work on a Linux build ( https://cagedelement.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=2315#p2315 ).
