I wanted to say a huge thank-you for porting this game to Linux. I hugely enjoyed it and appreciate that it takes time and real effort for a small team to port games. I see that it isn't available on Steam for Linux, so I am guessing that GOG helped in some way?

Whoever it was, thank-you! Of course, also a big thank-you to the writer, artists and devs for a compelling story.

I think GOG did it. They are great with such support.
I just finished (still some ending to uncover some day) this amazing game on Linux. Next Wormwood game I see here for Linux, I will take it and play it on day one! I loved everything about it. I'm also pleased that the Linux version is a GOG exclusive. Please continue having your games here on GOG and for Linux.

Let's not forget that the original worked perfectly in Linux via wine. So we should thanks the developers for being a bit sensitive since the beginning.

Thanks, guys. If I recall correctly, there was a Linux savant who built the front-end and gave it away for free -- he did it for Primordia and lots of other games, and eventually GOG bought them (I think?). Anyway, the credit is mostly owed to GOG and whoever did that work, not to us. :)
Yes, I expect a game like Primordia (I mean, not high 3D graphics-demanding) to run on Wine anyway, but it is nice to have some "Gnu/Linux recognition" and feel safe to quickly install and enjoy. And enjoy I did. While playing, I often talked about how well written it is. I am following you Mark. Your web page, I mean. Don't worry.

Thanks! I'm glad you enjoyed the writing! I've got a few tens of thousands of words in the upcoming Torment: Tides of Numenera, but my next big independent project is Fallen Gods. Hoping to have some good stuff to show from it soon.

This is fairly unfair. There are high 3D graphics-demanding games that works fine in Wine. The fact a game is "highly demanding" has nothing to do with it.

Example, beta of DooM 2016, in the final version they messed up with the DRM protection. It is nonsense and there are no excuses.

申し訳ありませんでした。
I may be a bit late to notice, but, along with the others, I want to extend my thanks to those responsible for a native Linux port. I will express my gratitude by buying the game here on GOG even though I own it on another platform already.
