Na'Tosha Bard is awesome! She did most of the Linux port work for the editor IIRC.

Bloody hell... What did everyone have for breakfast? A plate of "Go fuck yourself, with a side of bad attitudes"?

This look like a very interesting project, and something I could have a fair bit of fun with. I'd love to see this get a toe-hold, even if it is a little bit of a niche.

Quoting: LinasAs someone born in USSR, I can attest to that this is totally accurate and realistic.
No, it's not.

Somebody doesn't recognize sarcasm or jokes about stereotypes.

Still being treated like second class citizens when it comes to PRIME, grrrrrr! Glad bumblebee has picked up again.

Yay for sync I guess.

Kalypso seem to be supporting Linux more often. That's fantastic

Slime Rancher updated, hits 300K sales and I asked the developer about their Linux support

1. I wasn't aware it was available on Linux.

2. Our small base combined with the small niche audience they target would be a contributing factor (it doesn't look like my cup of tea).

Hard Reset Redux is not coming to Linux despite appearing in SteamDB

Quoting: BOYSSSSSI was wondering if I should buy it, 3$ promo price is pretty cheap, good thing I decided to wait.

I would quite happily pay ten times this...

Steam sales have ruined us.

Headlander, the new game from Double Fine Productions will not come to Linux

For fuck sakes... *throws hands in the air*.

Metal was released Jun 2015, Vulkan spec released Feb 2016, drivers hitting now.
Dx11.2 in 2014.
OpenGL 4.5 released in 2014, technically on par with dx11.

So while I can understand Vulkan wouldn't have been viable. But opengl would have been more than enough, and provides for 3 platforms. What special junk did they use from dx11 that isn't possible in GL? And they expended effort to update the engine for not one, but TWO vendor locked, single platform api.

Fucking API vendor lock-in... if a developer is using DirectX for no particular reason over any cross platform API and library, then fuck'em.

As for Apple, fuck them too. And fuck these guys. And that person over there.

Quoting: edoIt wont happen, that would be a bad idea, we know than windows has a great compatibility with old software, so even if win32 becomes legacy (and this wont happen anytime soon), they would support it properly.

QuoteAnyone know an open platform? Lin-something?
Lin-Lin-FreeBSD? yeah, I was thinking about that one too.

LinGNUBSD??
