Are these games seriously any good? *pun not intended. I own all of them through various bundles just have never installed any of them.

I sure hope this game is headed for Linux...

I also beta-tested it a little (not as much as I'd have liked to), and think it's a well-polished, great little game. My 15-month-old son was enamored with it, too!

I've done some updated builds, with new kernels..
Check the homepage or forum..

In all builds, PSX, Dreamcast are supported..
Some are extra packages in repo..
But PSX, N64 supported out of the box..
Dolphin can be compiled of course, like any other program..

And of course, any Windows emulators can be used,
if you install WINE from the repo..

Quoting: GuestI look forward to a day when all websites are decentralized so there will be no need to rely upon things like that for support.

How does that pay for hosting and maintenance? Unconfuse me!

Quoting: GNU_DawnThe linux version on steam is already drm free. At lease I can move the files and launch the game without steam open in the background. That counts as drm free in my book.

Sure it is DRM-Free! It's not possible to put the Steam-Stuff into an old DOS-Game :D. The "linux version" is the DOS-Game bundled with the native Linux DOSBox binaries. Which doesn't count as linux version in my book :D

Actually it does not use dosbox. I just checked the files, and no dosbox anywhere. So it is a genuine updated port, with no drm.

There are a number of games (not many) with no drm on steam. There is an (incomplete) list here:

http://steam.wikia.com/wiki/List_of_DRM-free_games

Actually I think I am mistaken. I just checked the license file and they do mention dosbox. But I still get the impression that this is more than a simple dosbox release. There have been a lot of upgrades.

I'm not sure that it's always the case. Somehow Steam managed to poison Loom for example, that it's not playable in ScummVM. At least that's what I've heard (I'm not using Steam so I can't verify that).

You can read why the steam releases of loom (and other lucasarts games) don't work with scummvm here:

http://sev-notes.blogspot.se/2009/07/steam-releases-vs-scummvm.html

Basically an updated engine is used in the steam releases, and it is scummvm incompatible. Compatibly could be added, it is not difficult, but it won't be for political reasons.

This one is really important for open culture. I, also, hope they hit the full goal at least.

Yeah, looks fantastic! I love how indies iterate, and re-iterate, over turn-based strategy. Too awesome.

Reminds me somewhat of the real-time / turn-based combat switching in Supergiant Games' upcoming title Transistor (which I'm also SUPER stoked for).

Good!

i have played every serious sam game all the way through co-op, really enjoy them. Serious Sam 3 was the best game when steam for linux first came out. Very excited about a new one. I hope its not in the desert again, I enjoy the tropical setting of the first games more.

There is a city of Townsville in north Queensland, Aus. Does the name have anything at all to do with it? Doubtful, I know, but you never know.
Unfortunately I very much doubt that powerpuff is my thing, but good to see it coming to linux.

QuoteWhen I say a true 16-bit RPG I mean it, it was actually released on the Sega Megadrive

That's pretty neat. :)
Though I probably would prefer them bundling the original game with a Mega Drive emulator instead of doing a remake.

Does it at least contain a YM2612 emulator for the music? I'm a sucker for those synth ICs...
