I’m taking a grad comp arch course this semester, and this looks like a great refresher of what I learned a while ago in undergrad. Really look forward to digging into this!

I got this game a while back through the large 2020 bundle, and I was wondering if I’d be able to put it onto Steam for some of the useful metrics like playtime and stuff. I saw the other link about getting a steam key, but I unfortunately don’t have a page with steam key info as that resource showed. Would you have any tips on how to go about it?

Ah, sorry about that. If you go back and read the details on that bundle, it specifically mentions that it doesn't include Steam keys for games which otherwise have 'em. You can always add the game to steam via the little bottom-left UI, "+ Add A Game" -> "Add a Non-Steam Game..." Would that work for you?

For my purposes, yeah, that’s more than fine! Appreciate the help.

Hi, I'm on linux and I just tried this. However it doesn't work. The rawexec doesn't seem to work with the script either. Any solutions? thanks

You can manually create a .desktop file for the application, you can find instructions on how to do that for executables online. Once it's in ~/.local/share/applications (i think) you should be able to choose it in Steam.
