The Linux/Mac version seems to have messy enough external dependencies that simply running the game (I assume main.lua) is a bit of effort.

Figuring out the correct version of lua to install, for one, is so far an exercise in trial and error. My distro provides packages for lua 5.1 through 5.4, and I'm just kinda guessing which one will work at this point. Found 5.1 is too old (::continue:: is 5.2 and up), and the 'peachy' package is not found on the others.

I see a folder for peachy in the provided files, but my lua is looking for peachy.lua at the top level instead of as a folder with its own files.

You're gonna have trouble running this without Love2D - installing Lua will probably not let you launch it.

I ended up emulating the windows version, but I do now have that installed from a different game jam game.

I got thrown off track because I was effortlessly able to uncompress it with XArchiver. Whoops.
