Linux Version & GOG

Post by d10sfan »

I bought the game on GOG a while back and had a couple questions.

Saw online that the game is on the Ubuntu Software Center now: http://i.imgur.com/9NMXC.jpg. Is that real?

If so, would I be able to get the Linux version from having bought it on GOG?

Also, would I be able to get a steam key for the game?

Also, will the Humble Bundle version (the buy from the site) have Mac/Linux versions coming as well?

[edit]

Saw that the new Humble Bundle has LOG with Linux version in it. Nice!

I bought the GoG version as well. But i will be buying the Humble Indie Bundle too now that there is a native client. I don't mind paying for it again, since it is such an awesome game and they deserve some loot for making a linux version.

Question: For those that have already bought the humble bundle ~months ago... Is the Linux version retroactively part of it? If so, how exactly does one download the updated bundle installer?

This is Humble Indie Bundle 7, just being released. You will need to purchase this bundle to get all 5 (new) goodies.

At this point one truly wonders why... Their support of Mac through DOSbox could be duplicated on Linux by the same method; (as many users likely already do on their own).

*hmmm* according to this heated discussion over at gog, linux is more a heterogenous ecosystem than a unified platform. Unlike Mac which is a unified platform much easier to support. http://www.gog.com/forum/general/is_the ... for_gogcom

also, there is this new project
