Hi reptile friends,

A small update today: the Desktop Reptiles demo now has a native Linux build.

This is mostly for desktop Linux players who want to keep a little reptile hanging out on the desktop without relying on Proton.

Steam Deck is not the main focus right now. The game is still designed first as a desktop idle pet.

If you try it on Linux and something feels off, especially launch issues, audio, or window behavior, please let me know your distro and GPU if you know them.

Thanks for trying it out!
