![]() Hello,
I'm curious, would you share numbers regarding Linux sells ? Is it worthy to support in your opinion ? Why did you do it ? Would you do it again ? Will you do it again for your next game ? Thanks I used Linux for about 10 years in Dual Boot with Win XP them Win7, and only Linux now for about 2 and half years (without dual boot). I own Drox + expansion, and Zombasite. Linux Mint 17.3 64 bits Xfce Kernel 4.4xx Intel Core i5 4590 (4 x 3,3 GHz) MSI GeForce GTX 960 @ 2 Go Drivers NVIDIA 370.28 8 Go DIMM DDR3 PC12800 Screen LED 1920x1080 French system with bépo keyboard

![]() It looks like Linux might be about 3% of our sales. From a profit standpoint it probably has not worked out, but I think supporting Linux is nice for other reasons (open OS, don't like the direction Windows/OSX are going, good community, etc).
Unless I changed to a new engine that didn't have Linux support or radically changed the current engine, there really isn't a reason to drop Linux support. I've already done the hard work.

Here's another thought: How many windows purchases were made by friends of Linux gamers, who recommended the game to their Windows-using friends? I just recommended it to a friend of mine, and have spoken highly of it in the past. I streamed it on Twitch a few times. I wouldn't be surprised if supporting Linux actually has a slightly higher return than is known. |
