i had no problems running it in wine when i used to play.
now with the bundle version (crossover ported one)..that works well also.
yeah..native version would be better but no problem with the winelib one for me at least.

only problem is that the damn game doesnt have windowed mode. so its better to play windows version in wine to emulate wine window to be able to play in windowed mode:)

Quoting: "lfz, post: 4382"What's the problem with that? People put a lot of effort in Wine development just so that this kind of thing can happen and more games can be played on Linux. I particulary wish more developers would at least officialy support Wine instead of saying that porting for Linux is hard.

That being said, I read the thread and it seems that the game doesnt run as expected and that sux indeed, if they wanted to pull this out they should have at least put some effort in making it run flawlessly.

The point it is very very hard to get wine to run "flawlessly" due to the very nature of what it is doing.

Quoting: "Use2378, post: 4380"Looks like the Linux version of LIMBO is just a Wine wrapper: http://www.reddit.com/r/linux/comments/ue5kp/the_humble_indie_bundle_v_amnesia_the_dark/c4umgmc

I expected more from a HIB

Not to exaggerate but this to me is definitely the best bundle ever! Totally worth going above the average!

Well, on the bright side it's better than nothing. Luckily I've come to love the unity2d interface. Which their taking out of Ubuntu 12.10... :(

Oh noes. I counted wrong. This would be the 13th bundle. There have been 12 to date.
Sorry >_<

Corrected! Thanks :)

This would be Humble Indie Bundle #5 if it turns out to be an "indie" bundle. It'll be the 12th bundle all up though (the number 8 is coming from leaked opensteamworks info - I've got no idea why it's numbered like that for Steam)

Yay. It's fun, but please be aware that it is an alpha (and the Linux builds are quite new). There will be bugs :)
Also, there's a community made game launcher/mod manager called SUMLauncher that's currently being ported for the Linux version which should make finding additional content and updating (hopefully) easier.

and not linux as some stretched goal, that is good :)

ps: lodestar got update 3 out, which includes the licensing that the source will be released, still quiet low on the number though :/

One thing that bugs me about the game is that you have a move command and a move shoot command, I mean why in this day and age can an RTS game not move and shoot at the same time requiring two options? RTS games have had this capability for years. It's one thing that put me personally off about it.
