Three bits of GOG news in one for you DRM-free shopping fans today, as not only are they doing a big sale they also recently revived two more classic games.

First up, the classic 1992 comedy adventure Eternam was released on GOG earlier this month. Little late on picking it up since the Linux build wasn't actually available right away but now it is. Next up is Leo the Lion (original Polish name: Lew Leon), another retro classic action-platformer from 1996. GOG just released it today!

GOG are also doing "The Baguette Days", a week long sale to celebrate some fantastic French titles. Some good Linux picks are in there like:

In their French classics selection you can also find Arx Fatalis (67% off) to use with the open source Arx Libertatis game engine, along with 75% off Another World: 20th Anniversary Edition. The rest of the classics aren't on Linux.

This meme is tasteless and yet so accurate to what the 14th of July is all about in France ...
A bunch a pro military twats flaunting their military dick in everyones faces "in the name of national pride" ...

That being said I just double checked and Liam forgot about Sgima Theory being on Linux too (maybe the Linux build ain't GOG though )

I dunno but that ugh.. poster literally says "France fuck yeah !" and my guess is it is parodic.
Yes it's parodic, to like the American version.

Such a shame to not have this beautiful plane in activity anymore.

They have a discount on Helium Rain too. ^_^

It's a big up, the devs work on Ubuntu and even the not supported AMD graphical cards had a bit of backup from the devs.

I was stuck with no lightning in the game, and while they couldn't back it up, they gave some good pointers to get it working.

It is 50% off on Steam for the next 20 hours :)

But what I don't understand. What makes Helium Rain so special?
If I have Avorion, Everspace, Pulsar - Lost Colony, Celestial Command and others already.

Why Helium Rain?

Oh boy! Don't know if I'm tiered or not really smart but it take me way too long to understand this :S:

Why Helium Rain?

Helium rain is a mix between a fly SIM and a resource/ fleet management game. The game looks nice and the Newtonian flight is satisfying ones you used to it, but it makes the flight in the combat a bit slow with a heaviness sensation. From what I saw from avorion and everspace, it's not the same type of game.

Et voilà, comme disent les français.

For those interested in Arx Fatalis, be aware that the GOG version is only available in English while the Steam one is in 6 languages: English, French, German, Italian, Russian, Spanish.

I guess it’s similar to Euro Truck Simulator? There’s no story and no campaign and no end?

I haven't played it since it left early access, so it may have changed a bit. The narrative part gives you just the background and your goal is just to be the biggest company. I consider it like a good game but have to admit it's a bit too empty (on the narrative sense)for my likes. Hope these helped you a bit :)

Helium Rain in my opinion is best compared to the X games (X3 reunion etc), but at a lower scale. It's a great game, and i love the design of the ships, station and all.
