Can't run on linux / steam deck. When I try to run launcher.sh or nw it says it can't find the default font. How to start the launcher or the game? I've been supporting on Patreon for months only now trying to give this game a go.

I experience the same issue with some other titles which are able to launch directly from itch.io. The same error message about default font. Does anyone know of a solution?

Common issue with RPG Maker games; navigate to directory with nw binary

mkdir fonts;
echo '<fontconfig><dir>/usr/share/fonts</dir><cachedir>fonts</cachedir></fontconfig>' > fonts/fonts.conf;
FONTCONFIG_PATH=fonts ./nw

Thank you very much. This works! So now I'll have to launch the game like this every time?

First two commands are one-time use; the variable is important; you have multiple options for last line like adding alias in shell rc, exporting variable in shell profile or creating .desktop file
