The seriously impressive GZDoom-powered shooter Selaco from Altered Orbit Studios has managed to do quite well for the Early Access launch. Be sure to check out my initial thoughts.
Posting on X (Twitter) the developer posted:
SELACO has sold 51,000 units in just two weeks!
Thank you all so much for making this possible 💙
In a follow-up post they also mentioned the first "True Update" is due this week, Chapter 2 production is about to begin (which will be a free update) and the official soundtrack is coming really soon which includes extra bonus and unused tracks.
For Steam Deck players, they also posted in an announcement on Steam, that for some reason Valve gave the game a Playable rating for the game using Proton 9 instead of their Native Linux version. This is not what they wanted, as it "skips all of the optimizations we made for the Steam Deck, the custom menus and will make old save files not show in game" so you'll need to tick the Compatibility box in the settings and pick the Linux Runtime which will force it to grab the Linux version. They said they are "still working with Valve to get the game verified".

Quoting: StalePopcornAs I'd like to not assume; would playing via Proton count as a Windows purchase, or does Steam recognize that a particular title is being played on Linux via Proton and report it as Linux? Thanks.As far as I know, Proton counts as a Linux purchase. However, if you don't play the game within the first two weeks after your purchase, it will be counted for the OS you bought it on. Except for purchases from the browser, that will always count for Windows.
This is also noted on the Steam Tracker.

I might have involuntarily inflated the Windows count...
