Valve teases the Areola Controla. Wasteland 2 actually downloads, Eldritch goes open source, and Civilization in spaaaaaaace! Then we throw the chairs at Foul Play. All this, plus your hate mail.

Very interesting concept
-
Seems like something that desperately needs multiplayer
-
And Partial controller support. But at least you can play it on your Occulus
Nuclear Throne
http://store.steampowered.com/app/242680/
-
According to its steam store page, it was released in Oct 2013.
-
Shows up as early access for Linux in April 2014
-
WHY IS THAT NOT A REAL THING

Hipster pixel AND early access.

Finally!

Oh shit… this is shaping up to be exactly what I had hoped. Behold! My next time sink.
-
I, kinda like it.

Devel was quick to ask how it was running
The Last Federation

Gratuitous Space Battles, now with more Turn-Based strategy.

Do the backgrounds seem a little flat to you in the trailer?

So….EVE/FTL meets diablo?
-
Cross platform multiplayer is a nice touch
-
Price is pretty steep though. I’d wait until a 50% sale at minimum

Why is your game in Early Access?
We decided to make early access to choose the right direction of game development with gamer’s help.
-
Just the one gamer’s help
-
DayZ/Fallout 3/STALKER in Unity, or at least that’s what they’re aiming for.
-
I don’t feel like paying €20 to find out.
-
-
FFS this thing looks like “My first FPS simulator”
-
HTH does this crap get Greenlit?
Humongous Entertainment Steam Dump

Games from the 90’s, 6 of them plus spin-offs.
-
€93 worth of nope!
-
-
Fun fact, you can buy the base games separately for €18.94.
-
Means there’s just over €74 worth of spin-offs.
-
-
Geez. These look like some mindfuckingly awesome games

Eldritch Source code released under ZLIB license
http://eldritchgame.com/about.html#source
-
Ooh! Anti-semitic and open source!
-
I’mma be sorely disappointed if I’m not killed by the zombie of H.P. Lovecraft after I’m done compiling!
-
I started a CMake file (cmake can eat a bag) and fixing the static links but someone in Linux_gaming beat me to it and probably did an infinitely better jerb.
-
The CMake in r/Linux_gaming did work. You still need the assets to actually play the game.
-
Ya think?

-
FPS construction kit
-
Minecraft FPS builder /w guns
-
Could be a helpful learning tool for children or ARCH users.

Java game
-
Mystery Roguelike is a unique concept.
-
Curious if it actually works though. Mysteries are nuanced stories and randomly generating them can have some very huge pitfalls
-
-
Every other game who comes out nowadays is a roguelike of some description.

Game: Foul Play

Devel: Devolver Digital
Engine: Custom engine (derived from C++)
Price: $14.99
Wazzat: Play as the daemon-hunter Baron Dashforth in a side-scrolling co-op brawler set entirely on the grand spectacle of a theatre stage that rewards performance over pummeling.

No issues /w triple monitor setup since I use separate X screens ..like a real man.

What Pedro said
P-
-
Game starts in Fullscreen mode and sets my monitors to clone each other.
-
I had to manually rearrange my monitors, because even after changing to windowed mode it kept the clone setting.

Shiny / Sounds

Love the art style. It’s like a Double Fine brawler
-
Sounds are there but FFS the grunts
J-
-
Didn’t care for the music and was nursed by the dulcet voice of Chuck Schuldiner
-
I like the play gimmick, and some of the stagehands got a chuckle out of me
P-
-
Art style choice I could dig. The whole stage metaphor made literal is clever and something I could definitely get behind.
-
Repetitious music, ½ a second of voice acting and the same grunts constantly coming out from the enemies/your character.

It notified and made a point out of giving me a choice to properly configure my controller

And it also recognized it properly!

-
The first 20 minutes are a bit of alright.
-
Really like the audience health meter gimik.
-
I was hoping multi-player would save it but it’s just more of the same.
J-
-
This game is brutally repetitive. Same three or four enemies for what seems like an eternity
-
Haven’t had a chance to try out multiplayer yet
P-
-
It is a fun brawler, if you find a video or podcast to play in the background in such a way as to not have to listen to the grunting and the same 5-second BGM loop.
