I was pointed towards Mantis Burn Racing [Steam, Official Site] as the developers are considering a Linux port of their fantastic looking top-down racer. They may do it with enough requests.
They said this on Steam when asked about a Linux port:
So if you would genuinely buy it for a Linux version, be sure to add your support. Don't do so unless you would though, as that inflates numbers which doesn't look good when it does get released.
I'm a big racing fan and while we have games like DiRT, that doesn't mean we can't enjoy a totally different style of racer. This does look fantastic, so I hope there's enough support for them to do it.
About the game
The race is on in Mantis Burn Racing, where fast-paced bumper-to-bumper racing combines with intuitive, tactile gameplay and stunning visuals in one of the best-looking and most immersive top-down racers around. Drive incredible built-for-racing vehicles across highly detailed, visually stunning tracks, in high-risk, high-speed races where winning is everything. Prove your skills in an extensive career mode and take on friends with 4-player local split-screen racing and online modes for up to 8 players in ‘one-more-go’ style competitive racing. With a RPG-style upgrade system providing players with deep tactical choices and excellent replay-ability, this is racing at its rawest but most exciting! Article taken from GamingOnLinux.com.
