Quoting: scaine

Quoting: KelsAny love for Midora, which is struggling a bit so far? It's got Linux listed right up front.

Very zelda-like, or zenonia-like if you want to be a bit more modern. Sadly, with only 12 days to run, this will have completed by our next issue, projected for Monday July 14th...

Yeah, they're up front about the Zelda-ness, claiming that Majora's Mask is a favourite game of most of the dev team and it's definitely a strong influence. I appreciate that they don't try to cover that up, and of course the fact that Linux is treated as a given.

Quoting: KelsAside from which, I like the idea of more MMO for Linux, especially ones that aren't tied down to AAA-style graphics. I like something a bit more cartoony, which is why I enjoyed WoW back when I played it.

Wakfu is on Linux, soon being added to Steam. It has interesting an unique classes, turn-based combat and player-driven economy/politics.

Wakfu is finally out of beta? Sweet! I'd been watching for it a long while back, but I kinda gave up on it when I moved over to Linux (although I have a Windows 7 partition that I rarely use any more). Once it gets on Steam, I might have to check it out.

I've watched a couple of playthroughs of the first few dungeons, and it looks fantastic. Apparently the controls feel really good too, it's high quality all 'round.

However, it's also the sort of game I'm terrible at, so I'll probably not be getting it myself.

I haven't played trading card games, what are the better ones for Linux so I can maybe try one out?

Looking at the video, the card system resembles Triple Triad from Final Fantasy VIII.

Quoting: lavedeer god looks very atmospheric. not really like a game that will bring long term motivation or advanced gameplay but a nice little novelle with style.

I would expect it's aimed at much the same demographic as Superbrothers: Sword and Sworcery, which was a huge hit.

Man, Gender Bender DNA Twister Extreme goes out of its way to be some offensive trash, doesn't it? I guess deviantART members need games too. That one's on my "Not If You Freakin' Paid Me" list.


These ones look like they have potential though:

• Planetship
  
• InSomnia RPG
  
• Saga Heroes
  
• Spheritis
  
• The Deer God
  
• The Masterplan (the music alone makes it worth watching)

Oddly enough, I got it through a Humble Bundle (for Windows at the time, but later discovered they provided a .sh file for Linux installs) rather than the Ubuntu Software Centre. However, it's not in the Humble Store now, so presumably it never got added. Maybe approach them about it?

I can add Avadon 2 to the "needs linux" list. I bought it shortly before I switched to Linux and haven't been able to play it since. Apparently the first game was ported by a volunteer, and they had problems because nobody knew how to provide support, so apparently they're iffy about doing it again.

To be honest, I'd rather see Torchlight 2 than the original on Linux. But you go with what you've got I guess.
