What Subset Games (FTL, Into the Breach) think of Valve's Steam Play
Subset Games [Official Site] are a developer I was especially keen to speak to about Valve's Steam Play system, since Into the Breach is included as a white-listed game by Valve even though they're working on a Linux version.
Into the Breach is an interesting turn-based strategy game about the remnants of human civilization being threatened by gigantic creatures breeding beneath the earth. They confirmed back in early August that Into the Breach's Linux version was in "active development", so I thought their viewpoint might be quite interesting given the situation.
They first made it clear they are doing a Linux version, then their programmer Mathew expanded on it a bit.

While everything hasn’t been smooth sailing, the game has also largely avoided any major issues as it develops further.
In a report via PCGamesN though, Linux users of the game had a nasty surprise after they found their Overwatch accounts had been permanently banned.
