Coming up on Linux GameCast Weekly: We scream about streaming games with Linux! Distance looses control, Link invades Steam, and it’s probably archery. Then we throw the chairs at Painkiller: Hell and Damnation. All this, plus your hate mail.

I suggest switching to libav for streaming but WTH do I know.

Converted all sound files to .wav for Linux compatibility (this is why the patch is big)

Flexible campaign, means they get the dosh either way
33 is a bit short but it’s good knowing that wet stinky will help continue development.
Extra Humble
Bard’s Tale, Broken Sword, Organ Trail, Anomaly best Korea
Literally more games that I already own.
Literally games I don’t care about
Stretching RAIN!
http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1847847657/raindrop-0
Love the lack of mention of Linux anywhere, other than that retarded .png with the campaign goals.
Just wanted to give the project a mention since it does not have Linux as a stretch goal.
I suppose barely mentioning it counts
Probably Archery
http://www.probablyarchery.com/
Another 7 Day FPS entry looking to milk some money.
Looks interesting, even though suffers from the exact same problems as Wolfire’s Receiver.
I enjoy funky little games like this.
I’ve seen a few of these archry simulators. Interesting concept, but not very interesting
Scale:
Game: Painkiller: Hell and Damnation
Webzone: www.painkillergame.com
Devel: The Farm 51

Makes with the working
V-
I would ding it a chair for the load times but that is pointed out in the notes.
J-
For the most part it runs well. Got some pretty bad lag in single player for no reason,
Total-
Shiny / Sounds
V-
It’s definitely one of the best looking FPS games on Linux.
Ambient sound is top notch but the “here they come, fkr” audio is hella repetitive
J-
The game looks pretty good.
Found myself headbanging along with the combat music
Total-
Control
V-
No complaints here using the wireless gerbil + keyboard.
J-
Controls about as well as I remember
Total-
FUN
V-
I had “fun” for about two hours. This is when I realized it’s Serious Sam in heck.
No real story; just wave after wave + random boss fight.
J-
I remember playing the original in high school. This is a nice trip down nostalgia lane
Really, that’s about it.
