With the Humble Store Spring Sale ending tomorrow, here's a reminder and a look at some more choice picks for Linux gamers.
- Galak-Z 80% off - An extremely satisfying modern space shooter.
- F1 2017 70% off - Feral did a great job on the port of this one, great choice for racing fans.
- XCOM 2 67% off - Still to this day, it remains one of my favourite strategy games.
- Rise of the Tomb Raider: 20 Year Celebration 67% off - Only recently came to Linux, good chance to grab it if you haven't still.
- Ken Follett's The Pillars of the Earth 50% off - Pretty essential for fans of the books. Even if you don't know the books, it's quite an experience.
- Shadow Tactics: Blades of the Shogun 50% off - With the performance patch that was released recently, it's even better than before.
- Marooners 50% off - A mix of party games from the developer of Verdun.
- Pixel Heroes: Byte & Magic 50% off - It's a bit of a strange one, but I enjoyed it.
- Slime Rancher 40% off - Probably one of the sweetest games around. The slimes are so adorable!
You can find the full list of Linux games on sale right here.
Also, while not game related, for those interested there's the The Humble Book Bundle: Web Design & Development currently going.

I've been grabbing deals on Fanatical, Humble, and chrono.gg
My latest Humble grab was "Space Grunts"
A highly recommended Humble grab is "Slay the Spire"
My most recent purchase is "Tower of Time" which is in a Flash Sale on chrono.gg at 40% discount. Very good discount for a month-old release.
Now, I've reached 800+ Linux titles in my Steam collection.

Not Linux-native, but GOG is giving Unreal Gold away for free for the next day or so (26 hours left as I post this).
That's the original 1998 Unreal with all the bugfixes, fan-made upgrades so it'll play nice with modern hardware, and the “Return to Na Pali” expansion. One word of advice: although it'll run quite happily on the GPU with Direct3D under WINE, I think it actually looks better with software rendering. YMMV of course, but don't worry, it's 2018: your machine can handle it. :)

Thanks for the heads up. I got Slay the Spire and lost 3.5 hours. :D
