My eve online circa 2008-10 was on Linux, as well as other not-entirely well remembered attempts dating back to around 2005, when I was more interested in spinny cube desktop. Fglrx and I were well acquainted, but not quite friends.
Basically some Source games, Gog's offerings and Guild Wars in-between rounds of tuxkart
Insert Tuxkart music
OpenTTD worked excellent on Ubuntu on my Dell E5400 back in 2009-2011 or so.
I started gaming on Linux at the beginning of 2019, that was afaik half a year after Proton was released, and I still remember how rough around the edges it was. Back then it still felt somewhat like a coin flip (the odds in reality were obviously a good deal better) if a game ran. Seeing how much they improved it over the last 5 years is really quite something.
10 years ago back in college I mainly ran Ubuntu and did the windows VM with VFIO GPU passthrough to game on a fullscreen windows VM that got full PCI usage of the GPU, was the best of both worlds
Does Teeworld count?
The last time I played that game I was immediately kicked due to "skill issue"
Its good you like it though, I just wish there was local version
Iirc I did that for roughly a year and then proton hit. It was a bit of a different experience for sure but even at that time it was not all that bad. coincidentally that time also taught me a lot on how to troubleshoot stuff so I suppose it had it's benefits despite the added hassle that it was sometimes.
I try to only support the games that provide a linux gnu build but proton has really made that a fuzzy line.
I played cracked Minecraft on Xubuntu in 2014. And some games on Wine too.
