If you haven’t already checked it out, Armed and Dangerous is by the same studio and is very similar in terms of gameplay and humor. Not quite as polished, but a lot funnier in my opinion.
I did play it. It was silly and fun, but the gameplay felt so much more banal than GCK, which was amazingly All The Genres and shockingly successful at it.
Yeah, I thought that was so cool when I played it the first time. Gives you some insight into how the neutral parties went about trying to live their lives.
Although I really liked the story in TIE Fighter too with slowly beating back the rebellion while also trying to prevent internal sabotage and spies from stealing the TIE Defender.
Giants: Citizen Kabuto
Sacrifice
Call of Cthulhu: Dark Corners of the Earth
X-Wing Alliance
Morrowind
These were some of my favourite games as a kid/teenager. There are a lot more but I didn’t want to dump a giant list in the comments.
I’ve played them all on my Steam Deck so they definitely run on linux.
Oh man, Giants: Citizen Kabuto is a gem. Nice call.

X-Wing Alliance is so freaking good
It’s definitely my favourite of the X-Wing/TIE Fighter games. I really like the story in it, focusing on a family caught up in the war.

OpenMW is an engine rewrite for Morrowind that also has Linux builds and multiplayer support if that’s your thing.
I saw this Criken video a while ago of him playing it with friends and it looks awesome. The video is hilarious too.
Love criken and his friends. Been watching a lot of charborg recently, super funny guy.
