I honestly can't get enough of gorgeous 2D action-RPG titles and Aloft Studio's Hazelnut Bastille certainly looks good.

A developer from the Unsung Warriors team emailed in about their 2D action-adventure. They've released a free prologue with Linux support and it's pretty good.

City of the Shroud, a real-time tactical RPG just recently launched on Steam and it turns out it's had a Linux demo build for testing for a long time, with hardly anyone stepping up to check it out.

Welcome to the third review in the PIN (Play It NOW) series. This time, we’re covering a game that is so good, you’ll be devastated when you finish it. It’s quality-over-quantity, it’s Gunpoint by Tom Francis, sole developer and owner of Suspicious Developments.

It's certainly no secret I'm impressed with Starmancer, the Dwarf Fortress inspired space station sim. It has a Linux demo and the funding is still coming in, the stretch goals they've reached sound fantastic.

Truthfully, Crossing Souls is not a game I was actually familiar with until GOG emailed me about it. Turns out this sweet action-adventure inspired by the 80's is releasing soon and it now has a demo.

Failed State is another recent discovery that's coming to Linux, a game where the earth is in ruins after earthquakes, tsunamis, volcano eruptions and more and you're trying to survive.

Few games make me excited beyond help, especially when they're on Kickstarter, but space drone building game Nimbatus is fully funded and coming to Linux. I tested it and I love it.
