Back in 2017 game developer The Game Kitchen successfully crowdfunded Blasphemous, a very stylish punishing action-platformer. During the campaign, a Linux version was very clearly advertised but it seems to be missed out of seeing a release. A shame, as it's reviewed well and it does look awesome.
There's good news though! Linux is still planned (as is macOS), as confirmed by the developer in a comment on their Kickstarter campaign that mentions both platforms are due "appear (finally!) coinciding with DLC #1". No word on an exact date though, as many things are delayed due to the COVID-19 outbreak.
Not seen it? Check out the trailer:
Direct Link
Will be good to see this officially arrive, given how many people seem to be enjoying it. On Steam it has well over four thousand user reviews giving it a Very Positive score.
You can follow Blasphemous on Humble Store, GOG and Steam.

Hoping they do keep their promise and we see a multi OS release.
I love this style of game (mad Salt 'n' Sanctuary fan, remember? ), so pretty much an insta-buy when they get the Linux version out of the door.

Does it wear a conical hat?
Yes -> Probably a gnome
Is it also Christian?
Yes -> Must be a princess
And wearing facial covering?
Yes -> Uh, Nazareno during Holy Week?
And murderous?
Yes -> Hm, then it might be a klansman
