Get ready for the punchline! Soupmaster Games announced recently their intent to support Linux with Big Boy Boxing and there's now a demo available on Steam for you to try out.

"Experience the singleplayer action-boss-rush game with pixel-perfect retro aesthetics and inspiration from classic titles like 'Punch-Out!!', and recent indie hits like 'Cuphead'.

Starting off as a typical underdog story, you encounter, challenge, and befriend different characters all with their own unique personalities & backstories. Almost all characters have a story to them, and their fighting style can be different during a rematch if the context is different or they are in another mood. Reading your opponent is key to getting the upper hand in the boxing ring!"
