I played the other day the game. My personal computer is in a archlinux based distribution (endeavourOS).

I'll try to install the game and play it. If you are interested I can write the instructions here.

In any case, thanks for the game it is pretty cool !

Required dependencies :

Installing dependencies

All dependencies, except for bsdmainutils are present in pacman package manager. Hence for installing them we need to write the following line.

sudo pacman -S gettext man-db procps-ng psmisc nano tree wget xorg-xeyes

Afterwards, you have to install bsdmainutils from AUR. Here is a good tutorial to learn how to use AUR repository. In my case, I had yay already installed, hence I used it to install bsdmainutils:

yay -S bsdmainutils

In my particular case, tree, xorg-xeyes and bsdmainutils were the only packages not yet installed.

The game seems to work. I finished the game in my laptop and all seemed fine. I did not find any bugs or errors :)
