For me, it's Factorio.

a game in which you build and maintain factories.

It even has Wayland support!

(Version 1.1.77» Fri Mar 03, 2023 3:44 pm)

Graphics

  • 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.

Rocket League. It has an outdated Linux port that still runs just fine, just no online play, then runs great in Proton, too.

So technically, it qualifies.

My favorite native game is flight simulation X-plane since version 8. For kids Super Tux Kart.

One of them would have to be Life is Strange 1, it's a pretty good port and honestly it's one of my fav games of all time.

Life is Strange 1

I completed it on Windows before I knew what Linux was. I didn't know there was a native Linux port, thanks!

Out of all the games that I know for sure that have a native Linux port, I'm either going with Minetest, which I have been playing for Voxel Libre (once Mineclone2), or the Sonic Robo Blast 2 with the Reveries mod, despite not knowing what exactly it changes. They're the 2 games I know have a native port that I've been playing the most recently.
