"Boomer Shooter" is such a weird term when you consider that the original boomer shooters were made by Gen-X.

Definitely getting this one. It fills 3 entries from my wishlist, and I'll probably be happy with the others.

Hilariously, Ion Fury downloaded quicker than I could write this comment. 90MiB! That reminds me of the old Duke Nukem days already!

Why Proton? IIRC Ion Fury has a great native Linux release.

Man, this reminds me again how upset i still am that prodeus dropped the perfectly working linux version - i want to play that game so bad (the demo was truly awesome), but i can't justify supporting such asshole-moves -.-

Yeah, that feels bad. But then again, many games that NEVER HAD a native version are recently promoted on Linux sites if they run on Proton. :D
So let's be fair.

Well i'm not sure whats more non-supportable: not caring at all or going 90% of the way and then drop it without any explanation or answering the questions why ;)

A demo is very different to a full game, often a quick export of a game at a very specific moment in development. It's still Early Access remember. Either way, works just fine in Proton and you know how it goes, might even be better than any native Unity export.

I know what it means. I think it's hilarious that it's become a catch-all term for "old people," because we all know the actual boomers are the real assholes.
