Kickstarter Indie Bundle Brings Games to Linux
The Kickstarter initiative has helped a lot of developers to find funding for their projects, and now, a group of indie game developers are asking for the help of the community once again.
The developers have gathered in a project called Kickstarter Indie Bundle. They are asking for money to develop a total of nine game, but only four of those will make it to Linux.
The first game is Metagolf, a platform action game for 1 to 4 players. It’s like Mini-Golf but crazier since everyone is playing at the same time with the same golf ball.
The second game is called Ensign-1, a space combat game that aims to give the player limitless freedom. You aren't limited to merely piloting a single fighter throughout the course of battle. You can dock and board frigates, capital ships, and even asteroid bases.
The third game is Christmas Magic, a unique combination of a story book and a game for the whole family or for short breaks from work.
The forth and last one is TRI (only possible for Linux, I'm not sure the developers will have the money to port it). The game is a freeform 3D platformer with environmental puzzles inspired by games like Portal, Thief, and Zelda.
You can find more details about the game on the official Kickstarter website.
