Talking Linux Game Testing


Hi everyone, Im new here and looking for people to test a demo on Linux OS. It was developed using the Unreal Engine on Windows and I have no way of testing it out. The game is called Relapse, it's a puzzle adventure game inspired by games such as monkey island and grim fandango. You can download the demo here. Let me know how you get on. As I haven't tested it I literally have no idea if it will even run. You can view more info on the game here Thanks, James

Hi James...

Welcome to the forum

I love gaming as well and have for many years but just to give you a heads up, a game's content is extremely important and has spiritual, emotional and even physical significance and consequences. You may not be aware of this but horror content is demonic in nature and is not only sin but is destructive in nature. An aspect of this issue can be read here.

Please also take a look at my blog entry here. God has a lot more (and better) for you.

Regards...

Demonic content = GOOD JOB!! People who get all worked up about it being "evil" are, IMO, nut jobs. Anyone with a shred of common sense won't be offended, but sadly there's a HUGE lack of common sense in this modern world, and far too many people who don't believe you should be able to enjoy yourself if it doesn't fit with THEIR idea of proper.

We need more demonic content in games IMO.

I don't do much gaming in linux, or overall TBH. Play a few games. Might check it out. LOVED F.E.A.R. when I played it because of the horror overtones, made playing a FPS a lot of fun actually since I don't enjoy FPS very much normally. This reads like it's got a similar tone to it, might actually be kinda cool.

No offence, PoisonedAce, but I was just about to download it, and then I realized I have no way of knowing that it isn't malware.
