Some thoughts on 'Siralim 2', the never ending monster battling RPG

Face hell in 'Devil Daggers', now available for Linux

By Liam Dawe,
Are you ready to face hell? I sure wasn't apparently. Devil Daggers is now out for Linux and I took a little look.

Check out 'Binaries' if you fancy an eye bending challenge on Linux

By Liam Dawe,
The developer of 'Binaries' sent me a copy of their game to check it out and it's impressive. It's a platformer where you're controlling two balls at the same time, each in slightly different level layouts, it's genius.

Become a box in 'What The Box?' a rather funny online shooter that has Linux support

By Liam Dawe,
I decided to check out 'What The Box?' a new Early Access shooter because the idea of it sounds hilarious. Everyone is a box, in rooms full of boxes, but you have to figure out what box is another player and kill them.

Stellar Overload (previously named Planets³) has released an experimental UE4 Linux build, looks very cool

By Liam Dawe,
Quite some time ago I wrote about Planets³ (now called Stellar Overload) and how they didn't hit the Linux goal, but didn't want to leave Linux out. Looks like they are delivering on that.

Pan-Pan, an intriguing adventure and puzzle game is now on Linux, here's some thoughts

Pan-Pan was sent over by my friends at GOG to take a look at. I had never heard of it before, but the visuals are so interesting it was begging to be played.

Refunct, the short and peaceful first-person platformer is now on Linux, I have some free keys for you

By Liam Dawe,
Refunct is a very peaceful and simple first-person platformer where you're not really guided by anything but your senses, it's odd, yet refreshing. It also throwns in some Parkour – because why not.

By Liam Dawe,
Mother Russia Bleeds is a rather violent beat 'em up that's now available day-1 for Linux. My friends at GOG sent over a key, so here's what I think.

Slime Rancher is another Linux game you should let your kids try if you haven't already
