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.

GOG add another game to their lovely DRM free library, next up is the simple yet challenging platformer '140'.
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.
The developers of Refunct emailed me to let me know that the game will launch on Linux on the 5th of September.
City Climber is an upcoming good looking platformer where you need to control a ragdoll character using your mouse or your controller.
