OTXO top down shooter game shows hope for Linux along with the Windows PC release. Due to further details from developer Lateralis. Which is due to make its way onto Steam this April.
Coming next from Super Rare Originals is OTXO. Developed by Lateralis, the developer behind Dogworld, which does have 96% Very Positive reviews on Steam. Now getting ready to release a fast-paced and dark roguelite. Due to offering precise but savage gunplay and time-bending slow motion on April 20th. That release is also due to arrive on Windows PC. But, there is some hope for Linux. Since reaching out to Lateralis via Discord, “no Linux build is planned, but if the game does well enough it can certainly become an option.”
Yes, this may trigger some people, but it’s not a “no” from the developer. Who also explains that GameMaker Studio 2 is being used for development. The upside, GM2 does offer solid Proton support, since its Linux offering is primarily Ubuntu. Which should work nicely for Steam Deck players.
