Frankly, I am underwhelmed. They should have waited until they could include more games. And I am not particularly interested in the one new game they are offering. :confused:

ACHRON IS OUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D
How did this get past GamingOnLinux and LinuxGamingNews?!!!!
-> http://www.achrongame.com/site/index.php
And you get one additional free copy if you buy it!
The bad news: 64-bit only and "experimental build", but still quite good news. :)

Linux: 64-bit GNU/Linux; it is a working experimental build that requires either the proprietary ATI or Nvidia graphic card drivers. We are planning to support Mac and 32-bit GNU/Linux in the future.

I'm in as well now. :)
Redeemed all my humble bundle desura keys, except HIB1, which didn't have any unfortunately.
Most HIB games seem to work, except a few like "Machinarium" and "Revenge of the titans" which crash Desura.
I also tried Urban terror, which worked without any issues.
So overall, very satisfied and very happy. :)

QuoteAn interesting note here is that Mac sales in our own store did not go down as a other online outlets like Steam started to provide mac versions; meaning it did not steal our customers but opened up to a new market. We think it is a good incentive for other stores to support Linux as well! - Frictional Games

Yeah they all have their place, but for now I'm not holding any hope on Steam, all my hopes go to Desura and Gameolith.

we can hope for both. they are little different.
desura is mostly indie games and addons/mods for games.
while steam has all different stuff.
i really like the desura thingy but i still hope that steam will come to linux some day.
the more choices the better it is imo. like linux itself: freedom of choice.
i would use them both.

He didn't mention Steam for once, that is a shock....although a lot of other people are now jumping on a "steam should take note" bandwagon...i disagree with them, we should support Desura not hope for another service.

Looks like Larabel is a little late to the party, guess he managed to clear his head enough of beer to read his inbox:

And you should be happy Liam, no mention of Steam for Linux this time.

Its exiting that they finally got it working but I do worry a bit that Gameolith.com might have to pay the price for it. Is the linux market big enough to sustain both ?
ooh and Phoronix will hype Desura to no end while being pretty negative about Gameolith.com when it was released.
Time will tell.

You wouldn't be cheating me. I made the game :). But if you're not interested in modding, yeah, buying the full version is better. There will be an update in the next week approximately with 10 new levels also.

You think it's fun to cheat an indie company providing Linux support?
No thanks.
By , 12 September 2011 at 6:36 am UTC
Quoting: "trentgg, post: 2312"The cool thing about the Lite version running on a PC is, it will run any 20 levels, so if you knew how to create them (which is quite easy), you could mod the game and never need to buy the full version. Like I said there is still a 20 level limit and you'd need to figure out which characters give which objects in the plain text level files, but it could be fun.
