Thank you! I'm not using Linux, but I got a VM running Ubuntu 18.04.03 yesterday and that seems to be enough to create a build. The core mechanics work fine so far, but there are some issues. I'm not sure if they're related to the build or just the VM, but it needs some more testing before I release a build publicly. I'll update the page and comment here to let you know when it's done!

I tried running the program on linux with Wine (Ubuntu 19.04) and it runs fine except for the audio, which sounds really weird and nothing compared to your video. I still did the tutorial and as someone with no music theory at all, it really help me understand how to start making beats, so keep it up and thank you for your work.
Thank you for your kind words! The linux test build that I run in a VM sounds mostly like the Windows version does, there's only a noticeable audio delay (probably the VM) and the frame rate is a bit low, so that the drum rhythm is a bit off. I plan to install Ubuntu on a USB stick soon to test how it performs on my real computer.
There are two build options for Linux, one of them should have a better performance and would be preferable, but doesn't seem to work right now. Looking in support boards showed that other devs have the same issue at the moment. Maybe a bug in the game engine, maybe a recent update for a required Ubuntu package that made it incompatible, not sure. Anyway, I'll see what I can do!
