Unfortunately Itch has limited support for Linux and doesn't allow to specify them so they'd be installed automatically :(

Based on the `ldd` output,

sudo apt install liblua5.2-0 libstdc++6 libc6  libgcc-s1 libvorbis0a libvorbisfile3 libvorbisenc2 libflac12t64 libogg0 libfreetype6 libx11-6 libxrandr2 libxcursor1 libxi6 libudev1 zlib1g libbz2-1.0 libpng16-16t64 libbrotli1 libxcb1 libxext6 libxrender1 libxfixes3 libcap2 libxau6 libxdmcp6 libbsd0 libmd0

I guess the list might be much shorter having some of libraries pre-installed on most systems.

True that some libraries can be pre-installed on most systems, but for some of them, there can be incompatibilities depending on the Linux OS version. For example, libflac. I recently added Linux support for one of my games (made with SFML) and I faced issue with libflac. I recommend that you also check by installing some other version of Linux OS (example, some other version of Ubuntu) and running your game there or ask a friend who has Linux (some different version) to check.

Thank you! It's a good idea.

I haven't got any feedback regarding Linux installations previously, so you're the first one :)
