Hello fellow Linux users. We are not experienced with Linux but we tried to upload an untested version anyway so that you may experience our game as well.

If you would point us in the right direction towards uploading correctly next time we will do our best in the next update.

Thank you for that!

Itch has some article on this https://itch.io/docs/itch/integrating/platforms/li...

but it worked OK for me (installed using itch app). The problem with permissions described here is usually easy to resolve for a lot of users but it would be better if the executable file already has the executable permission set (I dont know how/if can you do that on windows or if Unity does that for you) and it is probably safer if it is packaged in something like .tgz instead of .zip.

What is Shaking Bacon7 years ago (1 edit)

I cannot figure out how to start the actual game, the only thing that pops up is the file.

Can someone Please help me with this!! It's very confusing!

If you right click the file, then hit "permissions". On the window that pops up there should be three tabs. Select "permissions" and then check the "allow executing this file as a program" box, close the tab and click on the file. You should be good to go!

Hope I helped,

I'm having an issue where the mouse will not move from the middle, or it will move for a quarter of a second then it goes back to the middle again. The game is also extremely laggy even with the graphics on the fastest setting.
