WhiteKnight: Sigh. I missed my chance of getting X-Morph: Defense Complete Edition.
Ask Finkleroy the Keymaster, I'm sure he'd be able to help you
https://www.gog.com/forum/general/the_community_giveaway_gog_edition_redux
us who already have the games given out pass the keys to him so people that missed the giveaway have a chance to catch up.
Just don't expect too much, and hopefully you'd enjoy it.

tfishell: My feelings on Galaxy are something like this: if enough people want multiplayer and devs will only make it for a client, Galaxy is already here, so let it continue to exist and keep that option available for multiplayer development. (ie, don't just throw Galaxy away like some people may want)

But don't reject a game just because it's missing some (what I, at least, would consider) "frivolous extras", the aforementioned achievements and leaderboards.
Personally I do not care about anything Galaxy provides. For multiplayer I prefer LAN / direct IP mode. Galaxy integration into games only has disadvantages for me. But that's not specifically against Galaxy, it's against the integration of any shop client. For me games should not have shop specific functions. That's why I prefer game downloads from Indiegala or Humble or enjoy the games from GOG which do not (yet) have Galaxy integration.

tfishell: Back to multiplayer, despite what I said above, personally I don't care about multiplayer either; I don't care if Dead Island, the missing Serious Sams, and other highly-desired older games show up with multiplayer gutted, but I don't know how common that attitude is with the entire GOG audience (not just forum users).
I do not expect GOG to drop Galaxy. They already have sunk too much money on it. When developers want to implement a multiplayer mode based on Galaxy they should do so. But Galaxy support should not be required to publish a game on GOG, especially not for adding a Linux version. And I any time prefer a GOG release which lacks multiplayer mode, server based achievements, leaderboards or other online features over no DRM free release at all.
Serious Sam TFE and TSE are the only shooters I ever have finished. Missing the later Serious Sam games on GOG really hurts me. And not having Linux versions of other games on GOG because of missing Galaxy support hurts even more.
