Quoting: dubigrasuHm, 64 hours to go and about 3000$ still missing to reach the goal.
Hope they'll make it.

Only $1500 now. Funding usually ramp up a bit during the last couple of days too, so I'm pretty sure they'll make it.

Ethan Lee posted a guide on packaging games for Linux recently where he recommended to ship SDL2 with games:

Glad to hear you liked the game too, Liam. :)

I think the goal is to guide signals from emitters to receivers by placing those "mirrors" in the right positions. I agree that it could be much clearer though. Reminds me a little of Micron, and I'm definitely intrigued.

Looks very interesting. The trailer doesn't give away much, but judging by the description, it sounds like it might be a bit similar to Ghost Trick on the Nintendo DS.

Quoting: noinformationhereI liked Tiny & Big but the difficulty level was a bit uneven in parts.

I stopped playing at the first boss (or what looked like a boss), it was a too long and difficult fight. It’s too bad because otherwise the game was really good for an indie title.

I think that's where I stopped playing too. The part where you have to cross a long, partially collapsed bridge while Big continually throws huge boulders at you. I played it for a while, but it seemed to go on forever.

Thanks for the interview, BTRE and Eagre Games! :)

There are also a few other interesting campaigns on Kickstarter that might be of interest to Linux users:

Transmission - exploration of an alien planet with puzzles, tactical combat and crafting.

Greedy Guns - run 'n' gun metroidvania, which has a demo/open beta that I wrote about a while back.

Ilios: Betrayal of Gods - Steampunk action platformer based on the Iliad and the Odyssey. The campaign is almost over though, and it's far from its target.

Kologeon - action adventure with flying, exploration and RPG elements. The campaign has had a rough start, but it still has a fair shot at making it.

I don't think this is an awful game at all. The biggest problem, as I see it, is that they seem to have been too ambitious with the many unique character animations and haven't had enough time or money to make them look polished, and the end result looks more than a little jarring. Some of the locations are also not nearly as interesting as others, and the analysis puzzles are sometimes more tedious than challenging.
