Love his games, Journey is still one of my top 10 gaming experiences of all time.
I loved flOw and Flower, but I still haven't played Journey, I need to get a good ps3 emulator just for that. Also I just checked and the 2006 "student" version of flOw is still free, the 2007 ps3 version is paid.
Its in steam now and works even better than the original ps3 version! Its also 70% off right now :0
Ehhh I guess I need to figure out steam/proton then lol. I haven't played games in years. Is Flower up there too?
Edit: Thanks for all the advice on steam/proton everyone!
Not much to figure out, just make sure to not get the flatpak/snap. Any non-arcane distro should have a working package, the trick to packing steam being not trying to be smart about things you basically have to give it a libc, gpu, and FHS (chroot or not), it takes care of everything else.
This should not be seen as advice for anyone but a very small number of people:
There is a good purpose for the flatpak. My use for it is Squad's anti-cheat uses I think a depricated function in C, and the most updated version of glibc doesn't support it anymore. The flatpak does contain a version of glibc that works, so I have two versions of Steam installed on my system. I only use the flatpak for Squad, because that's the only game with that issue.
In principle steam should be able to manage such things by using a different runtime for the game.
It is! They're both steam deck verified so they should run on proton!
The vast majority of games on Steam will just work when you hit play on Linux. There's not much to figure out. You just need to create an account, download the launcher, and purchase the game. You shouldn't have an issue figuring it out. If you do, feel free to ask for help.
