fixedFixed a typo that caused the controller selection screen to not loop one way
changedSeveral days trying to get a Linux version working. Did not work.
changedFor the Linux version of Andy Blast there are ways to get it to work on Linux. The simplest being distribute the core files to someone running LOVE2D 11.4, but that requires work on the user's part and is not intuitive for a download and play from Steam. Other ways all include variations of the above method and, hard as I tried, I could NOT get Steam to download ANY files from the depot onto a Linux system, only the Windows files with Proton support. On the plus side I can confirm the game runs through Proton and I can also confirm it takes a small performance hit. Of course, the computer I was using to test had trouble running the game on Windows proper due to its age, but there was a difference between BAD and WORSE that I could notice. So, for the moment at least, I will not be able to get a Linux demo working for Nextfest, but it's still on my list!

It's time to get ready for the next NEXTFEST on Steam! And because of that I didn't get much done with the code this week. Here's a list of things I did/attempted to do with the game through the week:

Getting ready for NEXTFEST! (Lots of non-game stuff in this)
