PayPalOstriv [Official Site] is a city-builder built by one developer and I think it looks reasonably impressive. The developer plans Linux support too.
Ukrainian developer, Yevheniy, has been developing Ostriv in their spare time since 2014. The game is even inspired by Ukrainian architecture and their way of life. They are closing in on the first Alpha release, and Linux support is to come after (from the official site):
The initial release will target Microsoft Windows OS, with Linux and Mac planned after that.
I'm always impressed by what one person is able to achieve, even from the early video below it looks like it has some of the basics down that could make a great game.
You can see an early teaser from March below:
Direct Link
It does sounds quite interesting from the description of the gameplay. It will have a detailed economic simulation, crime, trading, farming, dynamic seasons and plenty more.
Since we aren't getting Banished, maybe this can fill that hole?
Thanks for the game tip, Tiedemann!

...planned after that.
While its not concrete 100% laid on to be released for Linux. I do tend to gve 1 man shows a bit more leeway with this than I would if it were a major/ established company saying the same.

I suggest only supporting it once an linux copy actually exist
Then again Raft bought out an linux edition and then dropped support
so even after supporting linux its not 100% that support is going
to sick around
Is this solo sp only or will it have coop ?

Speaking of Raft, it looks like development stalled immediately after they released their Windows-only build. Still sitting at the 1.05 version since January. So we're not really missing a whole lot.
