Linux Platform Support

Linux users can go to Hell, finally!

That's right, A Bad Game of Football now runs on Linux. If you or a friend want to try it out, buy it during the Steam Sports Fest for a 40 % discount (or read till the end to learn how you can get a couple of free beta keys for you and/or a friend).

The game supports cross-play between Linux and Windows users. That means Quick Play (matchmaking) will match Windows and Linux users alike, and also that you can challenge those friends of yours who only use Linux/Windows

Known issues

  • Cursor bug - The in-game cursor is buggy on Linux. Therefore the OS cursor remains visible after booting the game. Press "C" any time to toggle OS cursor visibility.

  • Still not playable on Mac

Aaanyhow, what I'm trying to say is: The Linux version is not rigorously tested yet. For that, I need you, real people, in the real world, to test it, and report any bugs should you find them.

I pray that any Linux related issues will be reported in our Discord.

If you've read all the way down here, and would like to test the game on Linux before you buy it, I have a few beta keys available that I can hand out. DM me on Discord (joelspeanuts).

See ya!
