What is your favourite game with native Linux port?

For me, it's Factorio.

a game in which you build and maintain factories.

It even has Wayland support!

(Version 1.1.77» Fri Mar 03, 2023 3:44 pm)

Graphics

  • Added support for Wayland on Linux. To enable it, set SDL_VIDEODRIVER=wayland in your environment. (thanks to raiguard)

What's yours?

EDIT: Great Linux ports* not like some forced ports that barely work or don't.

  • Celeste! One of the best games ever made, with a flawless Linux native version

    • Celeste

      True! Still haven't beaten it yet fully (no, I don't want golden strawberries)

      • I think that farewell and the c-sides are some of the most enjoyable, challenging, and rewarding gaming experiences I've ever had. Keep it up!

        • This game always amazes me with "fuck, no I cannot do that", but after trial and error I get better, and I know I overcome my skill issues.

          • Oh hell yes. The game pushes you to heights you never thought you'd achieve. And its there to catch you every time you fall.

            • Yeah, but the default keyboard controls suck. And I think there is somewhere in the game "every time you fall and die - it's a progress" or something like this.

              • I can imagine the keyboard controls sucking.

                And yeah, those messages are exactly the thing that makes the vibe so cozy. You're failing again and again and the game keeps encouraging you, believing in you.

    • I did not know that. Might have to double dip. I have it on switch, but encouraging Linux game ports with my wallet seems worthwhile. Plus it wouldn't be the first time I bought a second copy of a game....

      • I had many copies of the same game now on Steam when I committed 2 years ago for Linux gaming. I preferred GOG back then, but with Proton and much friendliness of Valve, I prefer Steam now.
