Between 2024-05-29 and 2024-06-05 there were 48 New Steam games released with Native Linux clients. For reference, during the same time, there were 357 games released for Windows on Steam, so the Linux versions represent about 13.4 % of total released titles. There’s a very special FPS out this week, Selaco, which is based on the GZDoom engine and brings back high-speed action old-school style.

Quest Master is another gem released recently, a Zelda-like title that is very close from the 2D RPG experience of the late 80s. So, it’s a week for retro games lovers.
