Could maybe use a link to the campaign? Or is it not live yet?

Waiting what feels like a very long time for this. Will purchase this weekend. Sweet!

Magic news. I've pledged to this one. As you say, quite a unique game and definitely worth a look, even if it's not your normal "thing".

And from Cheese's website, this also relevant : http://cheesetalks.twolofbees.com/linuxStretchGoals.php. This article talks about why launching linux as a stretch goal is often a bad idea. But not as bad as launching on other platforms first, then launching for linux at a later date.

That's also why I tend to avoid iPhone hand-me-downs that appear in the Play Store. Some developers get it right, but more often than not, those titles are poorly ported, buggy, ad-ridden shadows of their iDevice counterparts. And who wants that?

The Ubuntu Software Centre downloads for paid apps are very low, so getting 100 users from that alone might be challenging. But the success of the Humble Indie Bundle would point to hundreds of thousands of linux users willing to support their platforms (source : http://cheesetalks.twolofbees.com/humble/

For what its worth, I only kickstart projects that have linux support AND as a non-stretch goal. Although early days, I did support some projects that were linux-as-stretch. It's good to see that this approach is becoming fairly rare.

Already owned most of these from either my own earlier purchases from my Windows days, or from Steam for Ubuntu launching. I still threw $25 for Little Inferno and Thomas Was Alone, just slanted it mostly towards charity instead of the devs.

Sadly, Little Inferno doesn't install on Steam. Hopefully they'll rectify that soon.

Weird to see Proteus and Dear Esther in the bundle though, as they're both odd non-games in a way. More interactive experiences both of them. It's good really, because I don't think Dear Esther was worth the money I paid for it originally, so this is a good deal for the curious.

I'm making a stand, not so much "pro-Amazon", but more "pro-broker". I'm sick of adding credit card details to hundreds (only a slight exaggeration) of sites. So I'll only use sites or services that support Amazon Payments, Paypal, or the soon to be retired/enhanced Google Checkout/Wallet. And if another one of those brokers comes along, I'll sign up to that too, but if a site asks me for my credit card details directly, I'll usually go out of my way to avoid that service.

Shame about Realm. I wanted to pledge, but the UK Kickstarter doesn't accept Amazon payments, so I won't be pledging to any UK-based Kickstarter until they do. I've contacted them twice - the first time, when they launched, they replied that they had no plans to add it. The second, about a year later, didn't get a response.

Damn, you're right. It works fine on my 12.04 install (also 64-bit). So, an issue with 13.04 then... ah well.

Anybody else just get "Format not supported" on these Desura videos? Ubuntu 13.04 64-bit. Not much info on Google about this either. Weird.
