For me, it's Factorio.

a game in which you build and maintain factories.

It even has Wayland support!

Added support for Wayland on Linux. To enable it, set SDL_VIDEODRIVER=wayland in your environment. (thanks to raiguard)

What's yours?

EDIT: Great Linux ports* not like some forced ports that barely work or don't.

It's weird that Paradox supports Linux.

Why Overcooked 2 has a Linux port while Overcooked 1 hasn't?

Out of Space looks interesting, thanks!

Overcooked 1 is a Unity game released in 2016. Unity only started offering Linux build support as an experimental feature at the end of 2015, so it's very likely that the version of Unity they used to make Overcooked didn't had Linux support.

The real question is why Overcooked All you can Eat doesn't have Linux support.

Edit: I forgot to say, I don't think it's weird that Paradox supports Linux, they made their engine Linux compatible a while back, so offering support now is trivial. And I always remember the reddit post in which a dev explained that Linux users are like a dedicated QA team hahaha

I didn't know that!

Yeah... probably because devs don't care or the publisher.

Wow nice, they have probably some Linux users in their team then!
