Inevitably, I've coughed up for the latest Humble Bundle, containing 5 games: Amnesia, Bastion, Limbo, Psychonauts and Superbrothers: Sword and Sorcery. At the download page it says download for ubuntu but after that it transpired (after much head scratching) that the three games it lists "are not available for your version of ubuntu".



The other two, Bastion and Psychonauts "will appear on the page soon", but until then does anybody think they might work? I don't want to to be disappointed after downloading a 4gb file, causing me to reminisce on childhood memories of loading 8-bit tape games for 45 minutes only to find out that you had to reload them once you died after 30 seconds in.

On the download page, Amnesia and Bastion have .sh downloads, Limbo and Superbrothers have .tar.gz downloads, and Psychonauts has a .zip. All of those are most likely statically linked and shouldn't depend hugely on a specific version of linux.



That doesn't mean they will necessarily work, but it is pretty good odds that they ship with everything they need.
