Towerfall and Webbed are also real gems. Good bundle over all.

Popular multiplayer code editor Zed gets a Linux release

Are there any details available how to run the server side parts of this "multiplayer" mode? Or is it all closed-source and they are trying to vendor lock-in people?

Has a steep learning curve and an overly long tutorial, but was quite fun to play on the last onFOSS multiplayer event.

Anyone spotted the GPL source-code for this already? Would be nice to see what modifications their did to GZdoom.

NVIDIA switching to open kernel modules by default in future driver update for Turing+

Hate to break it to people, but gaming is irrelevant to Nvidia decision making these days. This is all about GPUs in datacenters for AI and so on. Supporting the open kernel module just makes it more hassle-free for these large scale customers that pretty much all run some custom Linux version.

Always nice to see games explicitly going for a non-generic setting. It's kind of sad that even games developed outside the US often end up going for what seems like a generic but heavily US influenced setting.

Dr. Robotnik's Ring Racers v2.1 out with Linux support now available

"gaster" seems to be the password to skip the tutorial and "Wi-Fi Warrior" to unlock multiplayer.

But that is seriously bad game design to have a long unskippable tutorial and make multiplayer an unlockable as well.

Dome Keeper is getting a major content update and multiplayer is coming

Good game, but indeed for a rogue-like it runs out of content relatively quickly. Maybe this update will improve that.

Embracer Group splitting into three companies

Quoting: CatKillerEmbracer was particularly relying on a $2 billion deal that fell through. They've been restructuring to try to cover that.

If I remember correctly then the rumour-mill said that this was a planned investment by the Saudi government, so that was probably a good thing that it fell through.
