Hacker Evolution is coming to Ubuntu

[mrobert]

Hello everyone,

I have recently received my Ubuntu CDs, and by popular demand from our users, we will be bringing

Hacker Evolution

to linux, (Ubuntu).

It's good to see such a growing linux gamers community.

Wow that's cool, When do you think will be able to get our hands on the linux version?

It's hard to give an estimate, as we are just getting started with the port.

You can try the demo with WINE in the meanwhile. I think it works

On Debian Lenny running wine-1.0.1-174-gc4039bd, a blank screen shows, a couple of seconds of music plays, and that's it. In the console, 'fixme:quartz' errors display.

Too bad, looked good. We'll have to wait for the native version.

For me, it does work now, but horribly slow, unless I disable all sound support in wine Than it runs smoot, but without sound

I think you should remove the statement from your site taht says the game runs perfectly under wine., for two reasons:

1: People who have issues might think the native port will have the same qaulity and refrain from buying it, and

2: it will be hard to track windows vs linux amount of sales, since imaptient linux users who do get it working under wine will buy the windows version so they don't have to wait any longer, making them show up as a windows sale, instead of a linux one.

Just my 0.02$

ya does not work with wine....

The game looks kool. Are the exploits real stuff or some give me's? In any case look like a fun game.

@eragon100:
Thank you for the suggestions. I will keep account of them.
