BulletRage might just be the most over the top twin-stick shooter I've ever played
5 February 2019 at 7:30 pm UTC

I normally hate TwinStick controls... but in this game, it works!
You automatically shoot when aiming with right stick, and frankly this is the control method you want. MKB is supported but seriously speaking, forget about that and use a proper controller.

Psebay, the atmospheric moto trials adventure is now available on Linux, may need a quick curl fix
4 February 2019 at 9:00 pm UTC

Psebay worked without problems for me, Debian sid.
It does struggle with ultrawide 3440x1440, sometimes pan/zooms the camera around so much that the bike disappears from view.

That title makes me simultaneously snort approvingly and scream internally.

The developer of 'Rise to Ruins' is doing so well, they're paying back supporters

Quoting: eridanired123Imagine if EA did this. . .
Yes, because that's the only way to experience that happening. :P

Steel Rats, a mental-looking 2.5D motorbike combat action game is coming to Linux

As a bearded bike-riding Linux gamer interested in sci-fi/steampunk biker-fighter-shmup crossovers... I approve.

Space shooter 'Disputed Space' arrives on Linux offering up intense 3D action
2 February 2019 at 2:27 pm UTC

Bought Disputed Space partly to support the devs and partly because I like space shooter type games. I think Allspace has some merits, hoping they grow something cool from this newly planted seed.

I'm very comfortable spending less than 2€ for essentially 2 decent Linux space shooter games.

NVIDIA have put out a new Linux beta driver with support for 'G-SYNC Compatible monitors'
31 January 2019 at 9:23 pm UTC

Ahh... good ol' G-Sync. :(
Disabling secondary monitors is unacceptable, at least to me. I do not expect Xorg to ever be fixed, all Linux hopes for the adaptive sync future currently lies with Wayland. But when? Or even if... :S:

Allspace, a free to play first-person space combat game arrives on Steam in a rather basic form

It runs beautifully for me, and with the new update I can finally change FOV. Had to lower from 90 all the way down to 50 to get a decent experience in ultrawide, can't stand the extreme fisheye I have with default FOV.
Slight problem though; decreasing FOV appears to move your viewpoint closer to the nose of the ship, and the cockpit gets cut off so the scoreboard is almost out of sight now.

Promising start imho. :)

Quoting: EikeAre these "phones" still a thing...?
I think it was established at BlizzCon 2018 that we do not have phones.
