    Spanner, I just had a quick go of Aquaria on my Ubuntu laptop.

    The linux port is certainly there.

    Yeah, I just found a mailing list entry from the developer:

    The beta is done. If you want the full, non-beta version, go get it here (plus five other games) for the low, low price of pay-whatever-you-want:

    Way to under-publicise! Looks like my weekend has been re-scheduled.

    Thanks for the correction.
    Can you download separately?

    You can download separately.

    After payment/donation you'll get an email with a link to a download page from where you can download whatever versions (platforms) of all five games you want.

    Enjoy

    And if anyone wants to see Maemo versions of these games, contacting the makers can't hurt.

    I'm sure that if they can be convinced that there would be enough of a market (and the porting itself isn't too hellish) that they could be persuaded.

    Great games - worthy cause. You pretty much couldnt ask for a better reason to spend some money on this.

    Thanks for the link, really. I always wanted to get World of Goo for a reasonable price, and now I have a chance

    Me two (boom boom).

    According to the live stats someone decided to give $500, or £330 in real money. Makes me feel a little tight.

    These guys certainly know how to make a linux user want to part with his money! (The secret is to include the following laundry list!)
    Linux compatible game
    No DRM
    Support groups like the EFF and the child's play charity.
    Pay what you want
    I'm actually quite impressed with the generosity of Linux users.

    They decided to open source Gish, Penumbra and Lugaru, if they hit 1 millon $ mark. If this happens, we can port these games to N900. Penumbra would be awesome in the touchscreen of N900
