According to a current survey on StackOverflow 21.7% of the developers are already using Linux on their Desktop!
Only Mac OS X (26.2%) and Windows 7 (22.5%) have the lead in this statistic.
Caracal Games, the developers of the 1st-Person-Parkour game Downward, have kept word:
the Linux-version of Downward is now available on Steam!
Hint: only today you can still get it in the sale for 25% off!
Description:
There is currently offered a Linux-version to the psychological Horror-Adventure-game Downfall on the steam store.
Sadly, this game does not start for me on it's own. You'll also need the game The Cat Lady from the same developer.
More detailed information can be found in this forum-post.
It's sad to see, that some developers don't test their own games on all platforms on which they are selling.
Downward, the 1st-person parkour game with interesting setting is currently in EarlyAccess and already looks beautiful - thanks to UE4-engine.
According to the developer Caracal Games there will be a version for Linux next week:
Yes you are right, we plan to expand to Linux in the next week! For Mac we will need to wait a bit more, more updates on this later on!
