Syd Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 I had gifted one of my Steam copies to a friend that runs Linux, but I haven't heard from him whether it runs with Wine or not.Unfortunately, he's offline at the moment but I'll ask him about it when I see him back online.

Lolinder Posted December 18, 2012 Author Share Posted December 18, 2012 If Don't Starve will be on Steam for Linux, I should be able to buy it once the beta goes public.

Lolinder Posted December 18, 2012 Author Share Posted December 18, 2012 Ah, I just realized we're having different conversations. When I said beta I was talking about the Linux Steam beta.

Syd Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 My Linux buddy is online, and will be able to test it the Steam version out with Wine later on.In the meantime, have you tried running the Chrome demo with NaCl? I've heard that the Chrome version of Don't Starve runs just fine with NaCl.

Lolinder Posted December 19, 2012 Author Share Posted December 19, 2012 The setup instructions are for if you actually want to write such programs.

Syd Posted December 19, 2012 Share Posted December 19, 2012 I honestly don't know. I'm just going off of what I've heard on the internet. I run Windows myself, though I know quite a few Linux users.

Lolinder Posted December 19, 2012 Author Share Posted December 19, 2012 It looks like Native Client should be automatically used for running purposes. Anyone know what makes Google Chrome say that my computer isn't supported? I know others have gotten Ubuntu to work, and Mint is hardly different.

Syd Posted December 19, 2012 Share Posted December 19, 2012 Ah, good. If you get it all set up, let me know how it runs.I think it'd be great if Don't Starve got official Linux support. I know that Klei has plans for a Mac version of the Steam client (and the Chrome version already supports Mac), and it's (usually) not a very big leap to go from Mac to Linux. Plus, the Linux version of Steam is coming Soon.
