you’ve been very thorough…none of this should be necessary though. think:humble bundle.
The developers evidently have little experience with packaging on Linux, and their user base exploded overnight, overwhelming with bug reports, feature requests and support queries. Could things have been done better, sure, but I think under the circumstances, the situation is fully excusable.

this had better be a joke. this dev has done a nice thing by releasing their game across multiple platforms. it’s not easy to maintain a program across multiple platforms.
this is exactly what happened. I’m very sorry, I clearly underestimated the knowledge required to package the linux version and I should’ve tested better… we are working on an update.
this had better be a joke
is that a threat of some sort?
i’m not making a joke. the devs haven’t done a ‘nice thing’…they’re running a business and have released a product. the product, for me, isn’t fit for use.
good to see that they’re working on it and i do hope that the problems, that lots of users seem to be having, are sorted soon.
why would I make a threat across the internet? surly it would carry no weight?
We have updated the packages. Please try them out:

Thanks
The update did not help me much, I just had some sound problems so i got the new update and now it will not even run.
I’m having trouble finding where the binary file was installed… i cant find it in /usr/games or /usr/bin or /bin
and the folder “/usr/share/gamedevtycoon/” no longer exsists?
here is my output: good luck!
gamedevtycoon-1.3.9.deb.i386-x64 $ sudo dpkg -i gamedevtycoon-1.3.9-2.amd64.deb
