Hey, when I try and run the .love file directly I get this error:

I’m running Love 11.4 on Ubuntu 20.04.

This is a common problem on ubuntu, the package manager doesn't include the correct version of luajit5.1. You can use the official app image of love which has the correct version packaged with it

It’s running!

I dig the graphics and music, holy geez, it looks really good for a jam game.

But I can’t see the build wheel on right-click. It might be my weird-ass ball mouse and re-mapping setup or something, not sure. But I could walk around on the island and get attacked by baddies, so that’s pretty cool. And I think it connected to the server too.

Holy hell, a multiplayer jam game! Good job.

Weird, you're the second person to say they can't see the build wheel. It should appear when the 2nd mouse button is held down
