While 9 Monkeys of Shaolin did have a pretty big delay, Sobaka Studio have just recently announced a new release date (including Linux support) along with help from Koch Media.
Originally, it was supposed to release last Fall and they didn't give a reason for the delay but their latest announcement mentions "9 Monkeys of Shaolin will be released in the third quarter of 2019".
Reaching out to the developer on Twitter today, they confirmed to us it will still include Linux support. Fantastic news, since I'm always wanting to play more beat 'em ups.

Quoting: s0laI wonder why it has "coming soon" tag, when it's going to be released on winter? :)It's just a generic tag we use for unreleased games that are confirmed to be coming, I suppose we could do with making that clearer.

I was waiting for this game but hearing about "magical seals" put me off. Why does everything have to be kids stories nowadays is beyond me.
