Linux?

[МихаилZ]

Will this game supports Linux/SteamOS? Have you any plans to Linux porting?

Port to Linux please

I own a Mac, a PS3, a PS4, an Xbox 360, a Wii U, and a 3DS. Somehow, you picked the only platforms that made it impossible for me to play your game.

I love games of this genre, and I love this game's style. What a shame.

+1 (was just checking if I could pick this up for my little sister yet ).

The failure of the developers to give any additional feedback even though this thread has hit over 200 replies speaks volumes about their respect for potential customer relations.

My guess is some gag-ordered exclusivity contract. Here's hoping to pick this up on Linux finally 18 months from now. When it's down to 80% off during sales and generates no revenue.

Good job guys.

It's absolutely an exclusivity contract.

Once the game has faded into obscurity, and a dedicated fanbase does the porting work that the dev should be doing, we can all pick this up. That is, if we happen to remember it still exists by then.

Guys, making ports isn't something we as the developers can decide upon - We signed Ori and the Blind Forest with Microsoft, they paid for the party, so they call the shots. For the time being, Ori will only be available on Microsoft-owned platforms, such as Xbox, Win10, PC.

@thomasmahler: thanks for coming clean with this. Could you maybe additionally give some estimate how long this "time being" will be? :-)

[glub♥Linux]

Well... I am sorely disappointed. :(

Ouch, the usual Microsoft making life difficult for everybody.

Dust: An Elysian Tail was published by Microsoft, but it's on Linux.

Mark of the Ninja was published by Microsoft, but it's on Linux.

Insanely Twisted Shadow Planet was published by Microsoft, but it's on Linux.

One would think that Ori and the Blind Forest on Linux is very much a possibility when considering the above. Please do look into this.

Also, since the game is on Steam, when is it coming to GOG? Quite a few people want to see it sold on GOG.[www.gog.com]
