To go along with Black History Month, the folks at Humble Bundle have put up a bundle of games to celebrate Black Creators and Characters.
As usual, I'll go over what to expect on Linux desktop and Steam Deck for compatibility. Noting if something is Native Linux or ProtonDB ratings to save you some clicking around.

Purchases of this bundle give a cut to Gameheads "a tech training program that equips young people of color with the tech and life skills they need to succeed at school, in their careers, and beyond.".
Quoting: SethMInteresting to see that only 1 game here is "unplayable" on Steam deck, and it is exciting to see that none of the games in this bundle are completely borked on desktop. A trend I've been seeing increasingly often recently.
The Deck is simply the best thing that happened to Linux gaming. More care in the industry and Proton continues to get better all the time. Amazing times.
