Sounds like the sort of game I'd enjoy. Added to wishlist.

On which note, I've got a 75% off coupon for Football Manager 2018 that I'm unlikely to use. Yes, FM2018 supports Linux.

Sorry, I should have been clearer. The first three games Esc2, Kona, SS4 *are* on Linux. I intended it to be read like that.

Quoting: nitroflowQuoting: g000hMeanwhile I grabbed the previous August Monthly Bundle and got...
The Escapists 2 (early unlock)
Kona (didn't have it already)
Sudden Strike 4 (didn't have it already)
plus other non-Linux stuff (mostly unclaimed) such as Pathological Classic, The Surge, Forged Battalion.
Sudden Strike 4 is on linux too

Currently, 76% off on GreenManGaming. Hmmm, maybe worth a punt.
Anyone finding it broken or problematic on Linux?
EDIT: And now back up to full price again :/

Whoop - I have just spotted - the newly Linux-ported Turok is 75% off on Steam.
Think I am just about to purchase ;) EDIT: Bought it. Played for about 1 hour. Good game. Decent port.

A few more I spotted:
Crypt of the Necrodancer at 80% off on Humble store
Bomber Crew at 60% off on Humble store
Merlin vs Zombies at 81% off on Steam EDIT: Bought this one, played for 45 minutes. Reasonable game, similar style to Angry Birds, certainly worth it at this low cost.
Looking forward to the 7 Days To Die update.

This very thread has done a good job of demonstrating to me just how toxic members of the Linux gaming community are.
Here's a few points:
- Most of the complainants neither bought nor played the game, and have no investment in it whatsoever. (So why comment? Answer: Because you're a troll.)
- Game developers do not like bad publicity, and if the Linux community is going to be toxic about their port or delayed build, then they might as well not have a Linux port. Better to have a perfect Windows release and Console release than even put any effort into Linux (which is what many of the AAA Studios do).
- Why not express anger about companies like Bethesda and Rockstar who never brought ANY of their titles to Linux? (That's right: Have a good old moan at the company which did bother bringing the game to Linux, and has been doing okay with updates.)
- So what if head of Facepunch makes some digs at Linux and Linux community. He makes digs at everything. It should be a case of "Water off a duck's back", i.e. It's nothing, and it shouldn't bother you.
- Rust game has been working fine on Linux (at least as good as the Windows version) ever since it went Final Release. And it was working pretty good before that, on Linux, too.
It's all okay though, because you can spend your money buying Windows games and then play them on WINE, making the Linux community look even smaller than it is.
