    (Linux)

    In case anyone is wondering, you can add the .exe to steam via games -> add non steam game.

    Then once added go to game properties -> compatibility-> force compatibility -> proton

    Idk if you need to force it or not but that’s what i did and it’s working

        I poked around it enough to make sure it worked but it says to play it in one sitting so I’ve got to find a chunk of spare time maybe this weekend. I think I’ll like it from what I’ve seen though. Some puzzles to solve and the premise intrigues me

          Oh cool, I wasnt sure about how much space and stuff it’ll take, I’ll book mark this and check this weekend maybe. Thanks for the info .

          Id be running on integrated graphics, so games that don’t require much are always nice haha

        Interesting point but… what else can we do? Mail the dev cash? PayPal direct from bank? CRYPTO. I completely forgot about crypto because of all the shady bullshit. But we buy crypto with… Mastercard. Shit.

        The flip side of this coin is, we also get what we want. Devs get paid, and we get games.

        I’m not saying it’s ideal, and I understand your point…but it’s better than not paying. This is just a typical transaction with extra steps.

      Me too fuck them. Maybe we can make this a trend start selling games direct and stop using Steam and Epic etc platforms. Do it how they did back during the old days as shareware.

    Not sure how I feel about the dev using the internet archive to distribute the game.

    By the way, who put it in the “Community software” collection? The game is not open source.

        Noting wrong with the IA whatsoever. But given how harshly they’ve been treated by basically every government and corporate interest groups they’ve been forced to contend with foot the last few years, and the regular DDOSes, I personally always feel guilty downloading things from them and spending more of their resources on “relatively frivolous” things.

        It paints a target on IA as a piracy distro while it’s plainly not. IA is not in the piracy game but using it to distribute questionable content can raise flags elsewhere.

          How could this be confused as piracy. It’s uploaded by the developers of the game?
