Linux version?

Is there any plans for a Linux port? If not, is there anything I could do to try to change that? :)

I bought this when it was first released for Windows. I saw that it was coming out for Linux too, so bought it to get the early support in (funding wise) with hopes to see the Linux version soon. Glad to see it is on the way soon now. Now I'll finally be able to play the game I paid for. Cool.

Thanks,

Is there still a plan for a linux version? I have purchased all GarageGames (Devs using there tools/publishing)linux releases thus far, and would like this one.

Can we get feedback on someone who knows where the Linux version is now? Clearly, it has been turned over for QA/testing. What's the status here? I'm eager to get this on my Linux box. My son loves watching me play, but I haven't booted to Windows in weeks.

Well, there are a couple more things to go in before the version is ready.

Im far too tied up in work now..
as well I'm out of town away from my PC to work on it.

Hopefully this weekend I can get the new package made up.

I should be able to.

but from there.. Im not sure what the plans are for release.
as Q/A will no doubt be still taking place.

There is a Version in Q/A now ..
so we will see what kind of feedback comes from that.
..
so sorry no real word at this time.

.. you know how hard it is to browse this site with a touch screen?

Thanks for the feedback. No worries about it taking time, so long as I hear it is progressing. I just don't want a Neverwinter style gap of almost a year from Winderz version release to Linux version release. It's a little freaky how quickly you replied, BTW.

Well just thought I would ask the question again, is there an idea as to when the linux version will be released? Will there be a beta? The Savage beta will be ending soon, so I will have some time.

Can anyone with some inside contact info prod Garage Games and see if we get an estimate on when they'll release the Linux version? I'm still waiting to play this without resorting to a reboot.

Hello. I have also bought your game. I played the demo in linux, by emulating it. But it seems to hang when I try to put in the ignition key while running the retail product in linux. Is there a reason it hangs, when trying to verify the key, or does it just not work in linux.

Thanks
