I bought this game believing it was had native GNU/Linux port. I was very sad to discover the launcher is just a command using mono to run the Windows .exe. Anyway, I would like to try it and see how it works, but it doesn't.

The original run.sh is

LD_LIBRARY_PATH=Linux/Bin/lib mono "Always Sometimes Monsters.exe";

And it gives me this error

Always Sometimes Monsters/game/run.sh: line 1: $'\r': command not found

Removing that semicolon, which isn't something you just put at the end of the line in a BASH script, and the empty second line as well, I get this

connect(2) call to /dev/shm/jack-1000/default/jack_0 failed (err=No such file or directory)
attempt to connect to server failed

Which is basically the same thing I get if I run the exe through mono myself. Anyone knows what's wrong?

Also, there's no Linux directory anywhere in the game, let alone Bin/lib subdirectories.

Hi,

Please re-download the Linux version as there has been an update and the game will no longer crash like it did before :)
