Fancy a bit of local co-op action in an open world with a zombie apocalypse setting? Don't Bite Me Bro! [Official Site] is free.
There's actually two versions of the game, the first is the free one which is a full game. However, they also have a "DELUXE" version which includes some extra content.
Here's a short trailer showing off some gameplay:

I've tested it out and it's actually not bad. Seems to work fine on Ubuntu. Hilariously, I was going through the tutorial and the tutorial guy was eaten by a zombie so that was pretty amusing. Not sure if it was supposed to happen…
You can find both the free and DELUXE version on itch.io. It's also coming to Steam, but no exact date as to when.

Right now the free version doesn't work on my system, it's unable to load ScreenSelector.so, instant crash to desktop, haven't got time right now to fix it.

I tried this with mouse & keyboard and unfortunately the game loses focus on the cursor after exiting any menu. Because of that I couldn't get beyond the first few minutes. Although it is probably fine with a controller if you're okay with giving up precision aiming.

The game works great on Ubuntu Mate and Lubuntu 18.04 for me and my kids. I can not get into it though. Anything with crafting in a game just puts me off. My kids like it and play it from time to time.

Looking at the game I thought it was from Wabby's, this dev seemed to trade zombies for space stations lately :)

Quoting: liamdaweNot sure what it was, but it's now working, I might even get time to actually play it by the weekend. I'll buy the deluxe version when it's on Steam.Quoting: lucifertdarkRight now the free version doesn't work on my system, it's unable to load ScreenSelector.so, instant crash to desktop, haven't got time right now to fix it.Odd, worked fine for me, it's a Unity game and that sounds like an issue loading the Unity launcher.
