Re: Ahh, that sucks |
CodeWeavers (the commercial backers of Wine) did the port:

According to the interview there was a difficulty with the audio layer that didn't have a Linux equivalent. |

I didn't buy the bundle for LIMBO, it actually looked like the least entertaining of the bunch, but after watching the video on the bundle and the guy pretends to not know how to say Linux I think they saw this coming. I wouldn't be surprised if they drop Linux, even though Linux users donate the most on average the total gathered from Linux is smaller and smaller every time. I've bought all but one bundle and played all games on Linux so it will suck if they drop it. |

Re: Dirk Dashing 2: E.V.I.L Eye |
This has been fixed in v0.9.1. Windowed mode is now the default on Linux, and I've added your lines to the dirk2 script (commented out), so people can recover from Fullscreen mode if it doesn't work for them. |

Pretty fun |
This is a fun little game, my only complaints are that even on easy, it sometimes generates a ton of monsters in a row, which gets irritating, and sometimes places two or three or even four spike traps right next to each other, which is tricky to the point of unfair.
<br><br>
I like the frantic feel that you get when a monster suddenly rounds a corner up ahead, and when you realize you have to turn and run.
<br><br>
A bit of advice, lead them back over the spike traps, and only turn and fight them when they're standing over one. The traps work fine on the monsters, and will give you the edge needed to survive. Going toe-to-toe with one, even with a sword, will sometimes end badly if you don't soften them up first.

Re: License |
Thanks, it would be nice to see this in the repositories. I'm content with the current license for now, but I'll see if I can make a valid debian package and consider changing it for the next release. |

Great game! |
This is one of the only games that I keep coming back too. Yes, it is sometimes a bit hard. But that's exactly why I like it. What's the challenge in games that are too easy? For a while I used to play with save files a lot and go back to earlier save files if something goes wrong. These days I don't do that anymore. If something goes bad I only allow myself to go back to the beginning of the scenario (not the entire campaign of course :-) ) My kids love this too. Especially with multiplayer it is fun to have almost the entire family playing.
<p>
Excellent game! |
