According to the changelog I get in the Desura client, it added "support for older Linux distributions, running glibc 2.13 or newer (e.g. Ubuntu 11.04, Ubuntu 11.10, Linux Mint 12)."

I quite like the game, too. The graphics and the music are very nice, and the story looks interesting so far. It was perhaps a bit shorter than I had expected, but I do look forward to the next episode.

I did have some very minor stability issues with the 32bit Linux version. It crashed twice immediately on startup, and once when moving between rooms, but even then I didn't really lose anything thanks to autosaving. Not bad for a 1.01 release, over several days of playing. (Valgrind suggests there may be some uninitialized variable on startup, but I don't know how reliable that is on a stripped binary.)

Other than that it ran beautifully, which was a relief since historically the open source 3D drivers have been... temperamental. Things, while still far from perfect, really have improved a lot in the past years.
