Blog: "One week after the release of Amnesia"

[shaola]

I'll paste my blog answer here too:

Dropping the Linux/Mac version will get you something for sure: -10% sales. Not to mention the bad word, 'cause you should not forget that Linux users have plenty of Windows only friends that might not hear about an indie game (niche games specially) if not told.

I've been promoting your game in GNU/linux forums i used to visit. I really think that GNU users are much more concienciated against the piracy, and a lot of people of thoose forums bougth your game because i told them "you are always complaining because there are not good comercial games for linux, so stop complaining and support this small company and buy te ***** game"

I bought Amnesia and both the Penumbra Collection and Penumbra:Overture ( via Humble Indie pack ) just because of the Linux support, and FG will not get my support/money in the future if no Linux version is available ( 64-bit too ).

I bought amnesia and i loved it so much. I have played penumbra before and after finishing amnesia y bought also penumbra collection from your website just to thank you and to support the developing of good comercial games for linux.

Remember also that one of the best publicity is hand-to-hand (or mouth-to-mouth, i don't know the english expresión for that) from the final user.

So please don't stop developing forks for linux (mac users fight for themshelves), i will keep buying your games and promoting your small company. (we have to help them friend, they are five guys trying to survive developing grate games...)
