I've been trying to get this game running from a Linux box over either TightVNC or X forwarding to Cygwin without much luck. Has anyone had luck with that or seen similar messages to this?

I tend to see this over ssh:

:~/games/terra_nil$ ./Terra\ Nil.x86_64
Set current directory to /home/thomas/games/terra_nil
Found path: /home/thomas/games/terra_nil/Terra Nil.x86_64
:~/games/terra_nil$ ./Terra\ Nil.x86_64 -screen-fullscreen 0
PlayerPrefs - Creating folder: /home/thomas/.config/unity3d/unknown

:~/games/terra_nil$ ./Terra\ Nil.x86_64 -screen-fullscreen 0 -screen-width 800 -screen-height 600
Set current directory to /home/thomas/games/terra_nil
Found path: /home/thomas/games/terra_nil/Terra Nil.x86_64

or from a terminal inside VNC I see:

Xlib: extention "RANDR" missing on display ":1.0"
Set current directory to /home/thomas/games/terra_nil
Found path: /home/thomas/games/terra_nil/Terra Nil.x86_64

I realise what I am doing is a little weird but I thought this would be a nice little game to play at lunchtimes, hence the attempts to run it remotely.

I don't really feel qualified to help with this haha

That cannot be a good sign for me :-p

I know my Ubuntu box is in a bit of an odd way and that VNC doesn't always get along with the X server. I'll try on a more normal system later. Sometimes Software Devs make the worse users ;-)

Out of interest, is %XDG_CONFIG_HOME%/unity3d/vfqd/TerraNil (~/.config/unity3d/vqfd/TerraNil if XDG_CONFIG_HOME isn't set) getting created, and if so, is there a Player.log in there (if so, does it have anything that you're not seeing in terminal output)?

Have you had any success running other games using the Unity engine like this? It's not something I've attempted and I don't have a second machine on hand at the moment to test with.
