Trine 2 Linux Client Released

[Znurre]

What's with the steam key? DRM on Linux?

There's no DRM at all in the version obtained from the Humble Bundle store.
I am using the same installation on both my desktop and laptop, no CD key or activation of any kind.

hopefully

they will tune up performance a little bit. even on lowest details the gameplay is not really smooth on my passive-cooled nvidia 9500gt (with proprietary drivers). i do not see a thing when trying to run in window-mode.

Runs good on radeon open source on medium, but not very fast on high and very high... (HD 6550 mobile)

It's a 32 bit game. The first consumer CPUs with 64 bit are from 2003. OpenGL 1.5 is from 2003. They have no problem requiring a newer version of OpenGL.

Bought it yesterday and played co-op with a friend for 5 hours in a row.
We played on hard, and I'd say we managed to get through 30% of the game or so based on some indications, so there seems to be a lot of gameplay for the money.

Extremely entertaining, even much better than Trine 1, worth every penny.
Greatly recommended to anyone

[Tares]

This is one of those games that are worth EVERY PENNY. Play it with friends/family on a gamepad in cooperative and it's just a whole lot of fun. Absolutely amazing graphics and animations.

Yes master! ... *goes and buys Trine2* ... oh wait, I still would do that :P

[Adriano ML]

Not fake! Can even download trough bit torrent!

I just went to the official site that was linked in the article AND.... there's nothing available for Linux. If you want to make an April Fool's joke... make one that's funny ok?

Don't worry, this is not the joke: http://frozenbyte.com/board/viewtopic.php?f=17&t=4117

Hasn't actually officially been announced yet, but if you buy it off that humble bundle store thing in the link it includes the Linux version

A not-so-funny April Fool's.....
