I completely support a Linux port of this. No reason not to as the engine I believe was already ported to Linux. It might require a bit more work than just loading your Visual Studio files into like CodeBlocks or KDevelop and hitting compile but it's totally worth it. At the very least I'd want Quadrilateral Cowboy on Linux.

I too would like this for linux.

I bought this game just because I believe that someday you [developers] will port it to Linux. :)

That's a bad practice I'd avoid. Devs have been known to swindle with false promises of a port, so I certainly couldn't reccomend buying a game when no port has been promised period.

Count me in for a purchase if it ever comes to Linux.

The game works perfectly with Wine btw:

If you count working in wine as fine that is great for you, you do you. Some of us would prefer native.

Yo, that was kind of a typo, I meant that it works fine, but sure, I prefer native too. Quadrilateral Cowboy was realeased native linux, and it was awesome, but I dunno if Brendan wants to visit this old title to port it. But it uses quake2 engine so could be simple I guess.

Okay it's out now

Runs fine under Manjaro 64 bit with Nvidia 495.44 driver, but when I set the resolution higher, the menus are not properly visible.

Just tested the game on ThinkPad X230i, runs very well in 720p, no issues at all! Thank you!!!

Pushing a new build in a second to address this, but the fix is to open ~/.local/share/thirtyflightsofloving/baseq2/kmq2config.cfg and changing vid_gamma to 0.8.

Fix is live - the config file may still need to be edited, but if you can blindly navigate to the display settings (should just be down arrow once, then enter) you can reset to default and it'll fix the gamma on restart.
