Frozenbyte the developers of Shadowgrounds and Trine series are looking for GNU/Linux gamers to test their Trine port !
“We’re looking for Linux users to test an upcoming Linux version of Trine.
We need people with at least basic Linux experience who are able to run the game and can play the game reasonably soon and provide feedback.
The beta version has a limited playing time of about two weeks.
Minimum requirements are a graphics card with Shader Model 3.0 support (ie. Nvidia GeForce 6 or ATI Radeon x500 or better), with a dual core processor recommended.
If you feel like you qualify, please email trine-beta@alternativegames.net .
We will then provide further instructions by email.
And if you were wondering, Alternative Games is the nice company that is actually making this Linux port for us.
Special thanks goes out to them as well.”

Thanks for the news Eyecreate, and keep the good work.
Awesome news!
I assume that, since the port is being done by a company other than Frozenbyte, those who already own a copy of Trine to play in Wine will have to re-purchase in order to get the Linux client? I know this is the policy LGP uses, and it makes sense, but it makes me regret having purchased Trine already. At least Trine 2 hasn’t been released yet, so I can wait for the Linux client if that gets ported.
woah, that game looks great 😀

That red, bold font looks ugly and unreadable.
And it’s awesome to see a port of Trine, it’s a cool game. (:
Well, thats what I had, at least it draws attention 😉
