Hi tapwag,

thank you so much for trying the game and sorry for it actually not working on your machine! :(

It is correct the game currently requires DirectX 11 to run. This may change in the (far) future, but sadly I can't promise you anything on that as of yet.

What I can do though is providing you an actual Linux Build of the game! This one should be okay with anything from OpenGL 3.2 upwards.
I just uploaded it to the game's page. If you are still willing to try, any feedback on how that goes on your machine would be highly appreciated!

I just tried the Linux build. One thing that I noticed was that the binaries had to be made executable by doing a

chmod +x Neon\ Nova\ Ultra\ Space\ Rumble.x86_64

on them (in this case for the 64-Bit version).

However my machine is simply to old to run the game. It's an old Mac Mini Mid-2007 which I still use to do my translations and office work. The reason why I am still hanging on to this machine is that it is very silent but I understand if you consider it outdated.

This is the graphics chipset that the old fellow has built in:

/sbin/lspci | grep VGA
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 945GM/GMS, 943/940GML Express Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 03)

The Linux distribution I am using is openSUSE "Tumbleweed" which is a rolling release and gets daily updates and from which SUSE Linux Enterprise as a commercial product is built. As it is a moving target there are occasional hickups but for daily use I am perfectly happy with it.

Thanks for producing the Linux binaries and putting them online. I liked the screen configuration screen.

Also this is my console output:

Have a good weekend and happy hacking!

I see the problem now... :D Well I really can't promise you anything for your machine then, sorry.
But I'm impressed your machine is still running and you are happy working with it. :)

Thank you again very much for your willingness to try and the detailed reports!
