How do you install the Poom SDK on Ubuntu? the intructions on the Github are for Windows and last night I was banging my head trying to get the SDK and tools installed and working on my Ubuntu Linux machine and then I just gave up. Any help would be appreciated, I donated by the way. :)
If you're wondering, I was thinking of trying to remake my delisted and never finished Cybernetta game in the Poom engine, with graphics and sounds made by myself. I no longer use Windows because one day, after a Windows Update gone wrong, Windows started throwing constant BSOD errors in my face, and a fresh install was not happening because the BSOD errors would just not stop, and any solutions I found online for the specific BSOD error weren't working so I was like, screw it, this laptop is now a dedicated Linux machine! Fortunately, Ubuntu is much faster than Windows, and games run LOADS better on Ubuntu with Mesa Graphics and my integrated Intel chipset, so I may never want to go back. Unfortunately, learning a new OS is very daunting. Funnily enough, the BSOD errors started happening while I was playing Minecraft, so you could say Minecraft killed my Windows install! Typical Microsoft. Also, give the Poom team my regards, Poom is hecka impressive, considering the limitations of the Pico-8!
I think I'm figuring it out. Apparently I was supposed to download the ZIP of the master repo because the latest version on the releases page is apparently not current because that uses mod_reader3.8 while the master repo uses 4.0... I don't know why that is the case but apparently when I go to verify that wad_reader is installed, the output now exhibits the correct behavior instead of giving me a huge error message.
