I am the owner of GamingOnLinux. After discovering Linux back in the days of Mandrake in 2003, I constantly checked on the progress of Linux until Ubuntu appeared on the scene and it helped me to really love it. You can reach me easily by emailing GamingOnLinux directly. You can also follow my personal adventures on Bluesky.
Game Develop is a good bit of free kit for developers wanting to create games without programming or for things like prototyping. The have a Linux version currently, but they want funds to improve it.
Nuclear Throne being on Linux is something I have been asking Vlambeer to do for a while now, and this month it finally happened! Nuclear Throne is a fantastic looking Procedural Death Labyrinth built in Game Maker: Studio.
Not long ago the tool Unknown Worlds wrote to convert Natural Selection 2's DirectX calls into OpenGL was open sourced, it has now been updated to build properly.
Obduction is an adventure game that went through Kickstarter last year from the developers of the games Myst and Riven. They are now evaluating Linux support thanks to Unreal Engine.
It's give-away Sunday on GOL! Strife is the new MOBA from S2 Games developers of Heroes of Newerth and the Savage series of games. They have a game called Strife in closed beta right now and we have 2 more keys to give-away!
Looks like Civilization is getting a reboot and it's called "Civilization: Beyond Earth". The great news is that multiple sources are stating Linux is a platform of choice now for Firaxis. See the bottom for the update.
The Chaos Engine is a true classic, I heavily played it back in the days of the Amiga and was happy to see the remake of it. It is now on Desura from those of you not wanting to buy from Steam.
It's Dark is a new creepy-looking adventure game on Desura built with Unity. It's creepy because you are alone, in the woods and there might be something there with you.
Well now, this was annoyingly missed by myself. The developer of Banished a pretty big indie hit stated openly on his blog that he will be porting to Linux & Mac!
Moebius: Empire Rising an adventure game from Jane Jensen is already confirmed for Linux and we mentioned recently the Linux release has been delayed. We now know what is causing the delay.

In T.E.C 3001 (Tesla Energy Collector), you are guiding a cutting-edge technology robot to collect virtual space energy leftovers for humanity. It looks as crazy as it sounds.
Citizens of Earth is a funny looking RPG from the developers of Waveform. Instead of recruiting a Mags you find a Baker, instead of a warrior you find a School Teacher and so on. It looks brilliant.
The Last Federation is a very good-looking space strategy game (spaceship combat woo!) that we have previewed a few times for you. It is now nearing completion and will release in a weeks time! It will of course be Linux native too.
