Hi there, I’m sorry to hear that. I wish I had some sort of answer for you, but I myself am no linux expert. Other people on linux systems have run the game so I’d imagine it works, but I’m unsure how to answer your question. I did a bit of googling as well on the backend systems but didn’t find anything relevant. I assume you are extracting from the zip and then trying to run the “Verdant Village” file within.
The only real advice I have is that if you run it and it fails to open a window make sure you stop the process before starting it again. Also the game runs using a system called nwjs. So if you see any processes named nwjs make sure you close those as well. I’ve seen the game get stuck like this once or twice (on linux usually), I think it’s an issue with nwjs itself, but I’m unsure. The game is programmed in Construct 3 so when it comes to exporting I don’t have much control or understanding of what the software is doing. All I can touch from my end is an export button and hope that the zip that comes out works, which is usually does.
