Quoting: GuestYeah, I feel guilty too for getting it for so little in the Humble monthly...

I just bought the Season Pass to help make up for it. ;)

Retro-styled 3D vector shooter sphereFACE is confusing, but quite good

8.5% of players have the Tux achievement; does that mean their Linux sales are proportionally higher than usual?

Long Gone Days, a 2D mix of a character-driven RPG is still planning Linux support

These types of games usually have squatty little characters, so it's a bit jarring to see them so tall!

MMO 'Project: Gorgon' released in Early Access with day-1 Linux support

Quoting: TcheyA lot of us (backers from Kickstarter or Indigogo) are waiting for our keys, and i guess when they are received, you will see a pack of suddenly very positve reviews on Steam.

Doesn't Steam hide such reviews by default? I seem to recall it now prioritizes reviews from people who purchased directly on Steam, as a means of combating "free keys for positive reviews".

The Humble Classics Return Bundle is a really good deal for Linux gamers

Quoting: scaineLike many here, I own the lot!

Oooh, look at all the nice games in this bundle! But... I already own every single one, doh!

WHAT THE GOLF? A silly physics-based anti-golf game will support Linux

Followed the link for Keyboard Sports, and found that Humble Bundle is the publisher. Clicked through to the list, and was dismayed to see that only 25% (2 of 8) of the games they publish support Linux:

The Dota 2 'Spring Cleaning' update attempts to improve your overall experience

Quoting: MetallinatusI am SURE I didn't need to buy anything to create my account in late 2012....

Same here, although it may have been a year or so later for me (I don't recall).

The latest System Shock update reconfirms Linux support, shows off more art

Quoting: wvstolzing(I can't help but wonder whether someone could do the same for the first Deus Ex....)

I first played that on the PlayStation 2, and was surprised how much better it looked than the Windows version, when I finally saw the latter. I don't know why they never ported the improvements back over.

KING Art may be doing a Kickstarter for RTS 'Iron Harvest', they're asking for feedback

Quoting: GuestThe linux community is important to them, but they never fixed the broken Book of unwritten tales… go figure.

I played through all three of those games, and don't recall any issues; what was broken for you?

On a side note, it's worth mentioning that these guys consistently deliver their Kickstarter projects on time, which is extremely rare! This game does look cool, but if the minimum pledge is ~$40, I'll probably pass... I have way too big of a backlog to fork out that much for a game I probably won't get around to for a long time. :-/
