Hi all
Just to let everyone know that Defense Grid 2 is currently on kickstarter and a stretch goal is Linux support.
Kickstarter.com
If you are interested get behind it and hopefully we can get Defense Grid on Linux. I have also asked whether they will consider a Desura release.
I'm getting really tired of Desura mucking up on Linux. Bought two games today that worked fine as demos and then crashed/don't work after I bought the full version.
You can always e-mail support at support@desura.com or using the Contact form page: Desura.com
Please see:
Desura.com
and Desura.com
... if you would like Desura to be supported again in the latest Humble Indie Bundle.
Any alternative ideas are welcome! :)
I don't know how much good this will do, but I started a petition to protest the inclusion of a non-native game in a Humble Indie Bundle:
Ipetitions.com
Please add your signature. It is worded in a very constructive way and it seemed like the most civil way to get our point across.
For anybody who's excited by these sorts of things, I've just published a two part interview with two of the excellent fellows from Frozenbyte which covers developing Trine 2, their experiences with their first in-house Linux port, and what the future may hold.
It can be found here: Cheesetalks.twolofbees.com
Enjoy!

New community site about Steam for Linux and gaming on Linux generally. Here we want to unite all the Linux users wishing to play their Steam games on Linux. And of course this community site should be a message to Valve with a request for Steam client for Linux.
If you want to help please join us!
The client itself is not the main problem, the games are. If the game doesn't run on Linux then having steam on Linux doesn't help at all. One reason this didn't get anywhere so far.
The XFCE/Thunar devs are minimalists. They're terrified of one day becoming something like KDE.
