For me, it's Factorio.

a game in which you build and maintain factories.

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.

I would note that Rimworld and Stellaris (for me) run much slower in linux than they do on windows, and they are kind of perforamnce sensitive games.

I hadn't noticed. but I have no real comparison since I was on Linux long before starting either title, so I've never played either on Windows.

They seem to run well enough, so even if its faster on windows and that's the tradeoff for having no Windows in my house, I'm cool with it.

Yeah. Normally I wouldn't care, but when the colonies/galaxies get big, even a 30% TPS hit or whatever starts to feel very painful.
