I was looking to purchase this, I see it is on Steam and GOG but no Linux support. I hope that is planned in the future!

It's had native Linux support since day one. I bought it (edit: on Steam) in its first week of release (2021-10) and it worked fine.

Not in GOG, for some reason.

GOG doesn't have a Proton equivalent like Steam does. If you're not familiar with that Proton is like a fancier packaged version of WINE supported by Valve as part of Steam, not a native version of the game.

Ok! Glad to know that it runs well in Proton.

I was looking at buying on GOG since I would let my kids play it, easier to share games without having to mess around with Steam family sharing.

I got 'while True: learn ()' as well as 'Shenzhen I/O'. The former held his interest while the latter is a little difficult for him to engage with.

This looks like it would be on the more engaging side.

I have played it on Linux without issue (via Steam).

Will it run in Ubuntu on 4-core AMD Ryzen 3 4300U with Radeon Graphics (no virtual threads)?
