Any chance on a Linux version?

I know i've asked before but that was many months ago, still no news. So is there ever going to be a Linux version?

Out of interest, will show tool pro be like other products such as TGE/T2D where you purchase a license to use it, then can download for any OS? So for example, if I bought it now, would I later be able to download the Linux release when it ships?
edit: Out of curiosity I tried running ShowToolPro demo with cedega installed. It appears to run fine. So until a linux version is released if you have a recent version of cedega you can run it anyway.

I've been holding off getting ShowTool Pro until a linux version is released since I spend most of my development time using Linux now. So long as a version is coming out at some point though, I'm happy :)Out of interest, will show tool pro be like other products such as TGE/T2D where you purchase a license to use it, then can download for any OS?

Anyways, the GG ignition key I beleive is x-platform. I know for my Orbz license from GG, that it works on all platforms that Orbz is available.

Its been a while so are there any updates on when a native Linux version of TST Pro will be available?

Have you given though to contracting it out?

GarageGames is taking on the responsibility of producing the Linux version of TST Pro and I do believe that they have someone lined up for it. I'll leave it up to them to choose when they wish to comment on it further.

In light of GG's new partnership, is there anything new on this front?
