Aw that's a bummer, there's no plan for a linux build at the moment sorry 
But the game is pretty basic 2D stuff so should run smoothly under Wine. you can actually get the basic game for free (without extra character and bonus materials), if you want to check out how it runs.
Let me know how it runs under Wine, actually, I'd actually be curious to know.

General / Crash when using KVM switches?
« on: August 26, 2013, 09:36:52 pm »
Hey all,
so my game Postmortem: one must die has been out for a while running on SFML 2.0 beautifully - thanks for the amazing library guys
One user just told me he gets a crash about 30% of the time if he triggers his KVM switch while the game is running. He said windows crashed report had this:
DINPUT - direct input. I don't do any handling directly or Joypad support, it all goes through the standard SF mouse and keybaord events. I searched forums and bug repository and didn't see anything, so wondering if it's really SFML/my game related or something on the end user. anyone every encountered this or might have any thoughts on the topic?

Interesting analysis FRex but I gotta repeat the request - could you spoiler tag that?
As for the stuff you didn't get... perhaps you didn't dig deep enough just yet

Haha, let me know if you find out. I honestly don't know if there really is one; there probably is a "most optimal" one but not sure which, too many factors involved :p

"... example of how to write nuanced characters with a reach into complex late-game branching narratives ... which happens little elsewhere in videogameland."

There is a huge emphasis on freedom of choice. It was refreshing to not be completely patronised by a game, to be treated like a critical reader.

Thanks for the thoughts guys, especially about price. Very encouraging to see you guys would actually be interested in paying for it We were promising it free since the start so backing out of that now would just look bad, but as I mentioned, we've always considered the potential for paid extras on top so we might consider. Will need to look more into Steam rules too I guess!

« on: July 22, 2013, 11:01:02 pm »I've voted yes, but I wonder if you've gone through the whole legal readings of Valve, because from what I know and have checked with others, you can't release a completely free game on Steam. Every game that's Free 2 Play on Steam offers some starter packs or in-game purchases or both. The logic behind is, that Valve can't just release all kinds of free game (otherwise the shop would've already been overflown), because with every new game, they add additional load to their servers and similar, thus they'll something in return. If the game got a price tag, Steam will cut-off some of the costs for themselves. If you have starter-packs, you again won't see every dollar landing in your pockets and similar goes for in-game purchases.
Thus I'm wondering, how are you gonna get a free games on Steam?
Dang I should finally get into doing the beta testing, but I don't enjoy reading that much, I'd rather just put out a bug list...
Thanks for your continuing support (and shoutouts on the blog
)Hmmm, interesting point, we hope it won't be an issue. We do have some ideas for additional content/expansions stuff already we were thinking of monetizing, so perhaps that would work if we offer that on top of the base free game?

USGamer.net writer Cassandra Khaw’s shares her positive early impression of our Beta !
And from her Twitter:

"There have been plenty of discussions about how video games can function as a medium for important messages and Postmortem is a prime example of that."
And from her Twitter:

What I really, really liked about Postmortem, though, I think, was how it dealt with burgeoning feminism in the country. It's surprisingly vivid, and almost a bit unsettling as to how it was presented.
