With Linux gaming picking up – and a lot of games coming out compatible with Linux we are working on a new plan for the site to incorporate both tweaks / compatibility tests and Linux game reviews and support discussions…
Tried Winter Assault as well, not tried the other two yet. I suspect they will play as well.

I am working on rebuilding SteamGamesOnLinux.com as the current site needs better search / data management… Members will be able to submit content / ask for help much easier as member profiles will include what system specs they have, linux flavour etc. Even though Steam has Linux games now there are a lot of Steam games that will never be ported to Linux…
Just a quick note to say that most of these tips / tricks to get these games working are based on using the WINDOWS Steam client installed and run with WINE – not the NATIVE Steam client.

Running the game notes: REGISTRY TWEAKS: [HKEY_CURRENT_USER/Software/Wine/Direct3D]: Make sure there’s a string value for VideoMemorySize in there. Set this to whatever value seems comfortable. I chose 512.
Multiplayer notes: Multiplayer works and is operational. Playing with a gamepad is preferred
Problems noted: Without the xact override, Dustforce doesn’t play past the title screen. At least from my tests
