Not for Linux (yet?)

I tried to get it working via Lutris on a Debian-based distro. It would not run, so I looked for a fix. I couldn't find fix to run the Windows version on Linux, because the developers released Linux support about 6 months ago. Linux support is available elsewhere, but not on GoG. I did install this for a short while on my work PC (Win 7). It ran fine, and seemed interesting. I'm entirely too busy to enjoy it at work though. I'm looking forward to purchasing it elsewhere after my GoG refund is processed.
