If you love your more casual exploration and building games, Shipolis seems like a neat one inspired by the Anno series. The developer mentioned it’s made with the open source Godot and it will have full Native Linux support, with a demo already available.
Always nice to see more developers using Godot to get away from closed up proprietary game engines.
Check out the trailer below:
