GOG only distributes the Windows versions sadly.

Seriously? Ugh, rude.

@sunred @EveryMuffinIsNowEncrypted GOG used to be better than most about making Linux versions available, but sadly that was a long time ago. I like their DRM-free ethos and would like to support them, but I'm not going to buy games that don't run on my computer.

I wish Steam had more competition, because competition is good and monoculture is bad. But you really can't beat Steam for Linux gaming; nobody else is even trying. (Maybe itch.io, but they're not really a Steam competitor.)
