PayPalIt seems every week there's a new deal going on you don't want to miss! Right now Humble Store is offering free copies of Satellite Reign and other stores also have sales on.
The current Humble Monthly will also allow you to unlock the recently released Linux port of RUINER along with Kerbal Space Program.
There's also only four days left to grab the Humble Strategy Bundle, which has Planetary Annihilation: TITANS, Company of Heroes 2 charity DLC, Empire: Total War Collection, Tooth and Tail and money off Total War: WARHAMMER.
Meanwhile, on Steam, they've also just announced a big "VR Spring Sale", although there's tons of titles that aren't VR also on sale. Here's a few choice picks:
- DiRT Rally - 80% off
- Shadwen - 75% off
- Rise of the Tomb Raider - 67% off (see our recent review here, it just released for Linux) - Honestly, it's a little crazy this huge title just arrived on Linux and now it has a huge sale hours later!
- Salt and Sanctuary - 60% off
- Dying Light - 55% off + Dying Light: The Following - 60% off
- Shadow Tactics: Blades of the Shogun - 50% off
For those who do have a Vive on Linux, there's:
- The Talos Principle VR - 50% off (normal version is 80% off)
- Serious Sam VR: The First Encounter - 50% off (normal/Fusion version is 85% off - only the Fusion version is on Linux, it gives you access to it)
- Serious Sam VR: The Second Encounter - 50% off (normal/Fusion version is 85% off - only the Fusion version is on Linux, it gives you access to it)
- Serious Sam 3 VR: BFE - 50% off (normal version is 90% off)
From what I understand, those should be okay for VR users on Linux. There's more that have VR support and a Linux version, but those are titles from Croteam that I know should work in VR for Linux too. Difficult to suggest any more, when a Vive is out of my price range to test and report on.
GOG is also still doing their sale, you can see some suggested titles from BTRE in his previous article. All his picks are good and still on sale!
As usual, if you find a tasty deal you don't want others to miss out on, the comments are open!

Oh man, Sat Reign is so good. Needs a relatively beefy computer, though, but still. Definitely worth your time.

Really? I would say that it is not so good. It has a good potential, but the potential was not utilized sufficiently.

So many free games lately. You could play quite some without ever buying one.

Rise of The Tomb Rider being on sale in the same day of the release of the Linux version, is not crazy, Liam...
I presume this was the real reason behind the delay of the Linux version of ROTTR...
I guess Feral already knew beforehand about this Steam "VR Spring Sale" and decided to do the things commercially right: A release with a launch sale... It worked for me, at least.
I'm gonna buy Talos Principle Gold too, for gift (about 6.65 U$D)

Rise of The Tomb Rider being on sale in the same day of the release of the Linux version, is not crazy, Liam...Same here... meh, I had the intention to buy it form the feral store, if there wasn't the Steam VR sale... now I've spent the saved money for more games on sale. So the same amount of money left my pocket (even a bit more), but I got more games for my pile of honor :)

I kinda have a guilty conscience breaking my intention to extra support Feral. On the other hand, I think Feral gets also paid on per contract base, and now other game devs got money from me which they wouldn't have gotten otherwise. Well, I'm still going to hell I guess :D

Since when did Payday2 stop making their newer DLCs for Linux too? They have the Payday 2: Ultimate Edition which is marked as Windows only because some of the DLC is missing the Linux logo.

Given Satellite Reign was on my wishlist I picked it up; thanks for pointing it out :)

Hmm if not for the need for the beta driver I'd have bought it at that price. Now I guess I'll wait for it to hit $20 on ferals site, might even have a graphics card that meets minimum spec by then.

Satellite Reign is a great game imo. It's a difficult one and for a tactical RPG it has quite a bit of randomness, but nothing too serious. And the only technical difficulty I had was using the ALT key to trigger certain actions in-game, as that was captured by the command box of the Unity desktop.
