I'm excited to let you know that the Linux build of Welkin Road is now live. You should be able to play the game on at least Ubuntu 12.04+ and SteamOS (mouse is still required for now), but it should also run on most modern Linux distributions. If you encounter any bugs with the Linux version, please let me know.

Update v0.24.1 is now live as well and includes a couple of bug fixes.

Changelog (v0.24.1):

Fixed bug where the level intro screen wouldn't disappear in speedrun mode if pressing a button repeatedly
The correct level number and color is now displayed on the speedrun summary page

I'd also like to bring the game to Mac OS X, so I'm looking for some beta testers. If you're interested, let me know in the comments or in a forum post!
