Hey, sorry it took a couple days to get back to get back to you! I looked into this and I'm not sure what the problem might be. I dug up the 1.1 version and rebuilt the Win/Linux distribution to see if that fixed it, but I don't have a way of testing on Linux so I can't verify it myself. It's uploaded as "Spapa1.1-1.1.01-pc.zip (untested)", but I don't have the time to do thorough bug-testing so there may be some issues with it.

If that version doesn't work either, please email me at sofycrystals@gmail.com so we can dig a little deeper and figure it out. Thanks, and sorry for the trouble!

Unfortunately I'm still having the same issue where what I assume is supposed to be the exe is a "manual page"

Hey y'all. Just saw the updated build in my feed and to see what it was about and saw the thread here. Not sure where y'all are regarding running on the game on Linux, but thought I leave a note for other users.

I did a quick download of the new 1.1.01 version from Sophie on my Linux Mint machine, extracted the folder from the zip to my games folder, and in the main folder run 'Spapa1.1sh'

This will run a script/command to launch the game on Linux.

Once the game ran I found the shortcut as 'Spapa1.1' in my menu (can search or look under all applications) which I can rename, change the icon, move into my games folder in the menu, etc.

Ren'py games are a little weird on Linux, but this is similar with any other Ren'Py game I've download on itch. Just requires a few minutes of fiddling around. Hope this helps anyone!

for me all Spapa1.1sh does is open it in the text editor

in the folder 'Spapa1.1-1.1-01-PC'
right click and/or open the folder in terminal.
type in 'sh Spapa1.1.sh'
hit enter
Doing so launched the game for me. I only started using Linux this year, so this is the best advice I can give other than running the game in Wine/Proton.
