I'm going to be honest, I had never heard of InSomnia, but it was sent in by a reader and I'm certainly interested now. An RPG set on a massive space station, with good looking graphics that's now planned for a same-day Linux release!

Guy Lunardi of Collabora went to the New York Linux Users Group (NYLUG) to do a talk on SteamOS. Check out the video.

Oh Techland, if Dying Light wasn't one of our very few open world games I would probably like you a lot less. You might be wondering why I am being rather blunt, well, their latest patch for Dying Light has removed everyone's heads on Linux.

So, a lot of people were excited about Unity adding in their new and much more modern OpenGL system. The sad news is that it won't give as big a performance boost as we were hoping.

I'm a pretty big fan of Albion Online, as we had a big drought of MMORPG games on Linux. Albion Online is in closed beta (you can buy in anytime) and it just had a juicy update.

The Mean Greens - Plastic Warfare is a pretty damn good looking action game about plastic toy soldiers, reminds me of a game I played like it years ago. The developers are interested in a Linux version, and want testers.

The Last NightMary - A Lenda do Cabeça de Cuia is an interesting hybrid of a point and click game with survival elements, has nice artwork too.

I've been sent Sunken by a user, and I have to say it looks like quite a good addition to the action RPG genre, the good news is the developer is already planning a Linux version.

Race Online is bringing back memories of some Amiga games I played many years ago, and it already performs nicely on Linux.

Lucius II is a game we sadly overlooked, once again due to it not showing up in Steam's new releases section due to adding the Linux version later. Lucius II has a unique twist where you play the bad guy and wreak havoc as the son of the devil.

Hatred, that weird shooter about killing anyone and everyone is now in testing for Linux the developer has confirmed, and SteamDB shows it too.

Every year, when we're near the end, we start to create some summaries. I've just decided to do small summary of what happened for me (a Linux gamer) this year. I am going to focus on AAA titles (and those that are close to be AAA), so if you're interested in Indie games, it's possible that this article is not for you.

Unity 5.3 has been on my radar for one single reason, they finally have a modern OpenGL system! I really hope developers upgrade to it.

Well this was a surprise, the Humble NEOGEO 25th Anniversary Bundle has been released, and it features plenty of games nearly all of which are available on Linux.

Starbound was already a huge and interesting game, and now they have released another massive update. With new combat, vehicles, new unique monsters and more.

I'm a big fan of Dying Light, even with it being a bit iffy at times for me, but the general gameplay is fantastic. The developers have announced a newer Dying Light: Enhanced Edition is coming

Dreamfall Chapters Book 4 has been released, accompanied by a major engine update and the time seems apt for a review. I previously covered the game’s performance improvements, and thanks to those, the game can now be discussed on its own merits rather than get bogged down in the numerous performance issues.

If you like first-person dungeon crawling, I seriously suggest you take a look at The Fall of the Dungeon Guardians.

Hybrid Beasts was sent to me on twitter earlier, and after watching the trailer I'm pretty much sold. It looks like it could be good fun.

Norwegian developer Red Thread Games has released Book 4 of Dreamfall Chapters, and along with it a massive engine update from Unity 4 to Unity 5 which intends on fixing many of the performance woes suffered by the game.
