I've never heard of any of these. Are any worth picking up?

[–] lime@feddit.nu 2 points 6 hours ago

headlander is a great 10h metroidvania with a 60s camp sci-fi style. very much recommended.

I didn't recognize most of these, but I've played a ton of Kingsway. It's a very fun RPG where the Game itself is an Operating system and all the actions you'd normally take in casual desktop usage translate to game mechanics. I've had a lot of fun with it and it's a real shame to see it on this list.

Westerado is decent and pretty unique.

Why would you not want to give GamingOnLinux clicks?

[–] TriflingToad@lemmy.world 5 points 19 hours ago

iirc the owner was a mod of a Linux sub and banned people for saying mods were corrupt. Aka what has happened at least once on 50% of reddit subs.

[–] BradleyUffner@lemmy.world 11 points 23 hours ago

Cause then I'd have fewer clicks!

Laziness.
