Sir, You Are Being Hunted FPS Stealth Game Hits The Big Release For Linux
5 May 2014 at 12:47 pm UTC Likes: 1

I've been playing on Linux since the first alpha and still loving it. The Linux support has been there from the off. Superb devs who've been active in the forums and taken feedback from the players to tailor the gameplay.

I've not had the "mouse problem" with this game or any other Unity game, which seems odd! I play fullscreen, maxed settings with a GTX660.

This game has tons of re-playability for me, although not for some others. But then I don't actually play it as intended, which is to collect all the fragments and "end game"... I just like surviving in the beautiful randomly procedurally generated world. One of my favourites, without a doubt.

Bah! I'm very jealous and annoyed. I bought a Gigabyte Osmium keyboard. There is zero Linux support for it. And to think I actually thought I'd reviewed the options pretty well (at the time)

Developers Are Unhappy With Steam Having So Many Titles Released So Quickly

I never scroll through the games banner on the store front page and always go the the Linux/SteamOS section. And as has been said already, unless a game is new on all platforms then it does not show up on the first page but is buried deep within somewhere with the date it was originally released on Windows.

As far as I'm personally concerned, a game's best chance of catching my eye is getting an article on this here very site! ;)

Oh, and while I remember, the thing that really annoys me is when the list is spammed with "Crusader Kings II: this, that, the other and a thousand more things!". I guess there's no alternative to that though.

Sanctum 2 FPS/Tower Defence Hybrid Now Has An Open Beta On Steam

Seemed to work pretty well for me, considering the warning. Played through the intro level no problem but crashed to desktop at the start of the next.

Looks like it'll be a fun game when it's polished up and a steal at that price.

For the record I run no DE with Compiz 0.8 as WM (Arch 64) and have no issues with Unity games. Not that I have many though. Screen res 1680x1050.

Unity 5 Announced With WebGL Exporting, Will They Fix Linux Mouse Woes?
19 March 2014 at 9:51 am UTC

The only Unity game I have (as far as I'm aware!) is "Sir, You Are Being Hunted" and I've never had this mouse issue. It's still in Alpha too. It's good to be aware of it though.

@stan - well I have no idea what's going on with your crazy setup :P but I've just tried the stock kernel from the repos and I got exactly the same frame rates as with -ck, maybe even 2 to 3 fps better.
