Hey there!! It looks like the Linux build depends on some outdated openssl libraries; Ubuntu and Debian have both dropped openssl 1.0. I went down a bit of a rabbit hole trying to install an old openssl package myself, to no avail. Any chance of an updated Linux build?

[trinket@viverrinus:~/games/Chico and the Magic Orchards DX] » ./chico
./chico: error while loading shared libraries: libcrypto.so.1.0.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[trinket@viverrinus:~/games/Chico and the Magic Orchards DX] » ldd ./chico | grep 'not found'
	libcrypto.so.1.0.0 => not found
	libssl.so.1.0.0 => not found

thank you for letting me know! I will look into this shortly

So, I've looked into it a bit and so far I am unable to reproduce this. The current build of the game launches successfully in my Ubuntu 22.04.4 LTS VM. Can you give me more info on which versions of things you're using? Thanks

Sorry for the slow reply – this is happening for me both in Debian 12 and Xubuntu 24.04.

EDIT: fwiw, I get the same thing in Ubuntu 22.04.4 (albeit running off a USB drive). Are you testing via Steam maybe? Googling suggests that Steam might provide its own copies of libraries, whereas I don’t use Steam and am trying to run the version I downloaded from Itch.

Turns out the Windows version runs fine through Wine though, so I’m good lol

I tried both the steam and itch builds and didn't encounter the problem. Very strange but I'm glad you got it working through Wine

Same problem, game no worky on Linux it seems, least not for me. using Debian 13. most GameMaker games suffer from this issue, probably just from the game engine not being super well made and having extremely piss poor linux support. Wine is too whiny for me to be bothered trying, just gonna take the L this time
