Trine is a beautiful fantasy action platformer with a fairytale-like atmosphere, following the journey of three heroes - a Wizard, a Knight and a Thief - in a quest to save the kingdom from evil. The gameplay is based on fully interactive physics - each character's different abilities and tactics can be used to invent new ways to battle an army of undead and overcome obstacles, and restore the balance of the world.

Wolfire's indie game pack, The Humble Indie Bundle is back with 5 games from Frozenbyte. As per usual there will be no DRM and we are humbled that Desura will again be helping to distribute the purchased games!
You can pay what you want and even donate part of it to help charity (Electronic Frontier Foundation and Child's Play). The big titles included are:
All of the games but Jack Claw will be release for Linux, Mac and Windows. But the Jack Claw source code will be published, so there are good chances that it gets ported by the community.
Highest Rated (5 agree) 9/10
Trine was fun, one of the few newer games that I actually completed =P. I haven't tried the co-op splitscreen mode yet, but I will during my second playthrough. It's a really beautiful platform game where you will solve different types of puzzles with different character, who has different abilities. There's some bonuses along the way that I like, find hidden items for example, gives you another reason to replay. Good Game!

Is there no linux demo? :(
Indeed there is none. We probably won't release a Linux demo due to a few reasons... Sorry! (But we will do so for Trine 2 eventually.)
I can't get the sound to work in Trine 1. Beyond that, I bought Trine 2 and it doesn't even have native 64bit binaries. I have to say, although I appreciate the Linux support thus far, I'm rather disappointed in the quality of the Linux releases from Frozenbyte.
Yeah the 64-bit binaries were discussed in the Trine 2 page (in short for everyone else: some of the middleware we use does not yet have 64-bit available so we're a bit stuck, although not forever possibly but no promises yet).
The sound is more curious - you can either check the forums ( Frozenbyte.com ) or send an email ( Frozenbyte.com ) and we can see. Oh and the old Linux FAQ might help too: Frozenbyte.com
Thanks, I didn't see that FAQ site. It looks like my problem is on there, so I'll try fixing it when I get back to the computer that it was acting up on.
I fixed it. I had my .asoundrc file incorrectly configured. I use JACK, so I honestly should have the burden of figuring it out.
There was some talk about the missing sound in the troubleshooting section of the forum, but unfortunately I can't seem to find it... Your best bet would be to contact Frozenbyte support crew.
I've just finished it at linux version.
Great graphics. Good controls.
Amazing music.
Simply lovely. I encourage the buy.
Play at Linux is posible. Thanks a lot, frozenbyte.
I was disappointed and surprised that the Linux version doesn't support multiplayer using KB&mouse, yet the Windows version does. Hopefully Trine 2 will do it. I would be totally fine with using xinput in terminal to setup the KB&mouse pairs, though a gui tool could easily simplify this.
Yeah I think we use Windows-specific libraries for that, RawMouse or something, which isn't available for Linux. Trine 2 uses SDL all the way I believe, and I think it works in Linux too (not 100% sure though).
