When I should guess I rather would assume an incompatibility between Ubuntu 14.04 and 16.04, as these are the supported platforms. That the new mechanism probably works on a larger number of Linux distributions is just a pleasant side effect. :)

But that's only a guess. A confirmation and maybe some details still would be interesting. Also a reason why they do not do the same for the DOSBox games, at least for those games which run on the latest, unmodified DOSBox version (which is the vast majority, as far as I know).

Congratulations to post # 13000. This results in an average of 9 posts per day in this thread (total 1410 d).

Well, I'm responsible for only 2,293 of those.

Just bought Master of Orion (the new 2016 one) and it appears to have achievements based on what Galaxy is showing on the page while I wait for it to download. It's not listed on the store page though.

Wonder how many other games actually have achievements (or other Galaxy features) but aren't being listed as such?

Is the new Terraria update today or am I week ahead of myself?

Not that I need it. I had planned to do something with my life today. If that shows up I'm looking at a another solid month of being useless. :P

maybe try and reply here
then perhaps your inquiry reaches the right people :)

Terraria update will hit on sunday for Windows, Monday for others.

thank you omega :D
