The itch.io client can't install the Linux demo 0.1.03, error message:

No manager for installer unknown

Someone mentioned this further down, but said it worked fine when downloaded manually from the website. I'm not sure why that is presently, but hopefully that works for you as well!

Yeah the manual download works. Hope you can fix the installer for the client!

Go to the preference of the application. Go to premmision there and tick the box saying acces as excitable file

That has nothing to do with the installation issue when using the itch.io client. The installation script isn't configured properly and nothing downloads.

It isn't so much that the installation script isn't configured properly as that there isn't an installation script. The game's just a basic executable file; it's intended to be downloaded and played normally. I'd like to support the itch app integration eventually, but I didn't even know about it until a few weeks after launch, so it's going to be a future thing.

Sounds good. Maybe have a chat with fellow itch'er MagellanicGames? Their game Office Point Rescue is also just a single file and works fine with the client.
