    Tried again last weekend to install and play “Strange Antiquities” on linux mint. Again - as expected - shit wouldn’t work.

    Linux people say their shitty software works, but it actually doesn’t. And they’re to antisocial to come together and work united on 1 distro and 1 distro only to make it better for everyone.

      Skimmed your history to see if there was any indication of what your hardware/setup was. Slim on details beyond “Linux mint with an old/underpowered CPU”, but I happen to have a Linux Mint machine with an astonishingly bad CPU (Pentium Gold 4425Y, 2 cores, 1.7GHz) and only 4GB of RAM, so I decided to give it a spin.

      Downloaded the demo from steam, changed nothing, hit play, game launched just fine and got to the main menu, but crashed to desktop trying to actually start the game. Tried a bit of tinkering, no dice.

      Did run just fine with no tinkering on two other more powerful machines though.
