PayPalAnnounced yesterday, the developer of To the Moon sequel 'Finding Paradise' [Steam, Official Site] has said it will launch officially on December 14th.
The great news, is that it should see same-day Linux support. It has a Linux/SteamOS system requirements section and the official site does actually show Linux very clearly as a platform. It will be released across Steam, GOG and Humble Store. It only has a Steam store page up currently and they will not be doing pre-orders, so you can wishlist it.

About the game:
Dr. Rosalene and Dr. Watts have peculiar jobs: They give people another chance to live, all the way from the very beginning... but only in their patients' heads.
Due to the severity of the operation, the new life becomes the last thing the patients remember before drawing their last breath. Thus, the operation is only done to people on their deathbeds, to fulfill what they wish they had done with their lives, but didn’t.
Finding Paradise is the 2nd full episode of To the Moon's series. It follows the life of the doctors' new patient, Colin, as they attempt to unravel a life that is split down the middle, and fulfill a wish that appears to be self-contradictory by nature.
Thankfully, if you missed To the Moon, it is not required to play and enjoy Finding Paradise. Good news for me, since I still haven't got round to putting much time into it.
I especially love the system requirements for Linux "Processor: Potato+", that's the kind of humour I like to see. Doesn't tell you much of course, but it indicates that it should run on most systems.

On a serious note, do play To The Moon before Finding Paradise, Liam, you would be stealing yourself out of an incredible game if you didn't....
Yes, please. And if there are any achievements, I hope they will unlock on Linux this time. In TTM I had to transfer the save file over to wine-installed game to unlock the achievement, luckily there was only one.
The one achievement triggered just fine for me. On 6 oct 2015 it says.
Wow, I think it's time to upgrade my Potato to a Potato+, then :/
Best thing is the last line for Linux:
"Additional remarks: For those who like to bake their own potatoes just the way they like 'em." :)

You should, and you should try to find the time to do it in a single session if possible.

Whelp. Time to finally play To the Moon and dust it off.
Seriously? You haven't played it yet?!?!?! :O
WOW! It's about time :D Shame that they do not do pre-orders- Would have bought it right away, and it is extremely rare that I pre-order a game nowadays.

Warn your family and/or neighbours to be prepared for gross sobbing.

Nice. Mine is from 25.05.2014 and it didn't work back then.

And specially the last part...

Rpgmaker walking simulator with a hideously boring story.

I just want to say how truly terrible this game is.
Rpgmaker walking simulator with a hideously boring story.
Are you referring to To The Moon? In that case I'm glad I'm not the only one who didn't like it!
I played it a few years ago and I found the gameplay to be absolutely abhorrent and nonsensical, and the story to be rather bland. It's not that I can't get emotional, but the story just didn't resonate with me. I won't spoil it here, everyone should have the chance to experience the game and judge it for themselves, but there was nothing in it that I found particular intelligent or touching. Sure, it was a little touching, it's not that I didn't feel a thing, but the ending in particular was just bad.
I'd say, play it and judge for yourself. My opinion is obviously in the minority, most seem to love the game.
I'll for sure recommend it though in the meaning of "It is totally worth a try, because if you like it, it might be a blast."
Here's my review from Steam:
It's pixely, it's ugly, scrolling is nasty, controls are broken, path finding doesn't work, the puzzles are superfluous, pacing is bad, the action sequences are crap, the jokes sometimes queasy...
... but it's a marvelous game about live, love and death.
