Hey,
Here's what one of our discord members suggested:
The easy way: Install it using Itch's client and run it through that
the Linux way: open the install directory in a terminal and run ./datesandwires.sh
if you get an error saying The file "./datesandwires.sh" is not executable by this user then run chmod u+x datesandwires.sh and try to run it again
Hope this helps!
