Linux version?

Do you plan to release a Linux/SteamOS version in the future? Would definitely get this once it's available on linux.

I'm very interested in a Linux version too.

It would be terrific to see a Linux version of this. Nice to see that the devs are open to it.

The game is featured on the Humble Bundle but it has no Linux support.
Meh. No money then.

Hi glub ♥Linux, It's very hard situation for us to develop all platforms at the same time in the two man team. However we can send you a linux build (not tested) if want to :-) Have a nice day!

I would be very willing to test a Linux build. I already own the game on steam from the most recent humble bundle.

The Linux demo that has been available on IndieDB for a while works well for me. That was made in Unity 4.5 though, so there might be issues on the new version of the engine. For instance, I've had crashes with Intel+Mesa and flickering on Nvidia in several recent Unity games.

I'm curious to hear how initial testing goes though, and I hope that it might eventually be possible to support an official Linux version.

I'd suggest uploading the untested linux build to a beta branch, that way you do not have to advertise official linux support on the store page but people that have the game already anyways can help with testing.
