Oh, weird, I searched for vvvvvv last night and nothing came up, now I see there's plenty.
I suppose this is a Steam thing, vvvvvv has been running well on Linux for a long time now - I played it a lot when it first came out in the HIB.
Nothing extracted yet.
Steam says its downloading and then goes immediately to "Ready to play". Selecting "Play Game" or "Launch 64 bit executable" says "missing executable". Properties -> local files -> browse local files produces an empty directory. The directory is: /home/leslie/.local/share/Steam/SteamApps/common/vvvvvv. It does not contain any hidden files either.
