The Castle Doctrine Released On Steam For Linux With Source Code Access
30 January 2014 at 6:07 pm UTC

Quoting: Ilya
Quoting: hardpenguinI wanted to get it few months ago directly from game website, but I think that idea of distributing Linux version as sources in form to compile by yourself is rather silly in 2013 and now 2014.
I think it's rather nice to have the Source Code as well...
I am not saying that having source code is bad. I am saying that developer doesn't distribute Linux binaries (at least he did not til the Steam release). What kind of support is that? There are non-technical gamers among Linux users too. It is not like each one of us is compliling kernels all day long.

Unity3D Web Player In Linux Browsers Thanks To Pipelight

Quoting: Quote from gubsHmm, does anyone know if this works with Jagged Alliance Online?
It tends to have problems with more complex games but... Just try it out :)

Quoting: Quote from Half-ShotSounds really cool, I haven't had that much experience with Unity3D web games but I'm sure this can pave some of the way for developers that don't want to think about packaging games.
I'd say no. Pipelight is not an official solution and it has no warranty of working properly (while it mostly does). It is still Wine after all. This is not the right way for developers, but it is a good way for Linux gamers to widen their gaming possibilities.
