Version: 
SVN Rev. 9XX
Released: 
13 April 2011

Homeworld's epic tale begins in the far reaches of the universe. You were the benign lords of a peaceful society located in the center of a lush spiral galaxy. For as long as anyone could remember, no one challenged your peaceful existence. But then came the conquerors, invading with the sole purpose of overtaking your world. Billions died, and the survivors were relocated to a cold, lifeless planet on the edge of the galaxy. Hundreds of years later, all knowledge of your previous existence has been lost. Only vague myths remain, until the discovery of an ancient tablet buried within the ruins of a half-destroyed craft in the great-banded desert. This Guidestone reawakened the knowledge of your ancestry, and set your race on the path home - coordinates leading straight into the heart of the galaxy. Sixty years ago, construction began on the giant Mothership that will carry millions of your people into deep space. Construction is now complete. Your journey to the Homeworld begins here...

Works flawlessly on single

9

Works flawlessly on single player mode.
Also it uses about 1/10 the resources that running the game in wine does.

9/10 for a port well done. Let's see how the multiplayer support get developed

  • 09:03:39 you caught me.
  • 15:27:36 Thanks, berserk, added the game & screens
  • 16:20:04 BTW, one more interesting Kickstarter project: [url]
  • 16:20:29 Linux version requires 100K donations
  • 16:21:25 not that much for a good looking RPG in my opinion
  • 10:56:58 Upd: authors said that Linux port will be released anyway, even if they don't gather 100K, so feel free to support it
