Running on something else than Windows is currently not supported!

Leave a +1 if you would play if available on Linux!

The two current issues with running it through wine are as follows (both are fixed in the "Palindrome" download)

1. The way the zip is currently packaged doesn't preserve folder structure, but instead bakes it into the filename (I think some zip extractors can handle that and fix it, but xarchiver didn't, at least not by default)

2. There's some kind of codec issue when running it through wine, with it crashing with a very unhelpful error code that means "unsupported MIME type" (MIME being a standard for identifying files, to put it simply), so currently the code has to be run without sound (luckily that can be detected "on the fly" and hopefully next update will auto-disable sound if it would otherwise crash)

Here's the status for those who will try the build on Linux. Those two issues should not prevent you from running the game on Wine. Music will be deactivated though.
