Steam Version on Linux

Hi,

I have purchased a copy through Steam. Is it possible to get a linux version too? I dual boot and mainly use linux but keep windows for steam games and convenience of purchasing. It would be great if I can play it under linux too.

Thanks in advance,

I'm not sure if Steam has it for Linux or if its for OSX...I'm not a mac person.

OSX and Win only sadly. But all we would need is binaries, I presume all game data would be the same.

time will tell...

If you were to purchase it from Frictional Games Store, you'd be allowed to have all three versions plus Steam key.
Steam grants only PC and Mac versions. But you can try it with Wine.

NOT anymore, that was only before release. You no longer get a steam key purchasing from the FG store.

I will have to try with wine. I have contacted the author and he would not be providing Linux binaries Sad Shame I already bought the steam version, but then again you get mac version on steam for free. Feel a little bit duped but will have to live with it I suppose.
