Well, if anybody is interested in becoming an in game character in Dead Synchronicity, some of the fans made a facebook competition with an in game character as reward for the winner. ;)

You only have to post a conspiracy theory regarding the start od the "Great Wave" there and afterwards a poll with all theories will be made to choose the winner.

Quoting: HadBabitsI wish there was a Linux demo so I could try it for myself :/

Yeah, they haven't pulled a Linux build together yet, only accepted help from developers in their area (it's made in Unity 3D). I guess your best bet for now is to watch a youtube review or playthrough:

GoldenEye: Source Is Now Open Source, Get Porting To Linux!
By HadBabits, 5 April 2014 at 1:12 pm UTC

I used to have fond memories of that game, until I played it a couple years ago; not remembering the dark time before twin sticks a decent 3D graphics. The N64 has to be one of the hardest consoles to get nostalgic about.

These are truly wonderful days!

Epic Games Loves Linux, Unreal Engine 4.1 Update Preview With Linux Support
By Evil Penguin, 5 April 2014 at 4:36 am UTC

Quoting: Lordpkappa
Quoting: Evil PenguinFor some reason with Source 1 games and Natural Selection 2, the games has pretty significant stuttering.
I'm curious if that's a side-effect of using the DX9 to OGL translators.
Have you try to set the frame rate at the same level of your monitor Hz? Dota 2 stutter a lot with vsync enable, when i set max_fps 60 no more stuttering.
I get the stuttering without vsync enabled.
This is with the latest kernel, Mesa, drivers for my Intel HD 4600.

Citybound Plans To Revive City-building Sims Using Javascript & WebGL
By , 4 April 2014 at 11:42 pm UTC

A-Train! I love this game. Took me 10 years to figure out how to win, haha (hint: it's all about evading taxes). I still have the game manual somewhere, too. Already the smell of that paper brings back some great childhood memories...

Regarding Citybound, the work this 21 year "old" guy does looks pretty impressive. It already shows more promise than Sim City 5 ever did. Let's hope the project doesn't die halfway through like so many other efforts before it.

Yay, #11114 is 6 years old and finally fixed :) World in Conflict is a great game. Let's hope GOG ports it to Linux sometime.

Oh A-Train..i still have an original store bought copy of A-Train that contains three 3 1/4 inch floppy disks, and the 5 1/4 inch OLD floppys, and the game booklet.

Epic Games Loves Linux, Unreal Engine 4.1 Update Preview With Linux Support
By loudermp, 4 April 2014 at 9:29 pm UTC

I still use windows only because of gaming, this is the kind of news I like to hear, since I am leaning toward switching to Linux, but I am looking at and open to other alternatives such as React OS still in development and not Linux based, I currently have PC Linux OS dual booting with Win 7, I have Steam installed but get a warning on startup the reason I have not tried to experiment with it more, I searched the web for fixes for this issue but I do not feel like trying what I have found I personally feel Steam should work without any tweaks the way it generally does with windows.

Thanks

Interview With The Developers Of Star Conflict The Space MMO Including Game-play Video
By , 4 April 2014 at 8:40 pm UTC

Playing since liam announced the linux release, loving it thus far. And yes, scratched my head a bit as to where did they hide the shop thinking i would inevitably find a paywall of some kind.

Refreshingly surprised when i found the details of what could be bought, like that part thus far, and open to spending money actually just to support the game, more than feelling obliged to do it, wich in the long run, might mean they get more money out of me than other games which hit the players hard with the aforementioned walls.

Anomaly Defenders, Play As The Aliens In The Anomaly Series
By , 4 April 2014 at 8:19 pm UTC

Starting to be, not merelly a fan of the series but of the developers.

Real nice and polished gameplay from the games i've played, good design and thoughtfull implementation. Plus the support for linux, wich is allways a plus! :)

11bit are more and more a permanent on my radar, and in my opinion should be also on the general publics atention. Good going!
