This works but without sound, what’s missing is Pulseaudio support for i386:
sudo apt install libpulse0:i386
Note: for some reason the above install removed a lot of my standard (amd64) Pulseaudio and Gnome stuff. I just reinstalled everything it removed, and it kept both the i386 library and the normal one, with both audios working.
At this point the game at last seems to work, but with all these old dependencies I don’t know if it will last. Will report here later, but it might be safer to just make a chroot or virtual machine from 2017 to run the game in.
One more thing: You can't change the audio sink of the game on pulseaudio, which is bad for the streaming I wanted to do. This turns out to be unrelated to the problems above; it's due to the game have a locked setting on OpenAL, and it can be changed by adding the following to ~/.alsoftrc ：
Hello! Apologies to necro this thread; but have you any advice on getting it to work on Debian Bullseye? I can no longer install libssl1.0.0 due to me not knowing how to install the multiarch-support package No worries if not and thank you very much for the instructions!
I am trying to get it to work on Bullseye as well. You should be able to install multiarch-support with the appropriate architecture with
sudo apt install multiarch-support:i386
From there you should be able to install libssl1.0.0. I still have not been able to get it to run. There may be possible issues with libGMResource.so and gmresource.dll.
maybe my libraries aren't up to date or I need to enable some sources? It just returns the "unable to find package" error message
As far as I understand the functions of multiarch-support is actually in-built to bullseye now; but obviously the libssl1.0.0 package doesn't know that because it's ancient and has no way of telling that bullseye contains the same functionality
or maybe i'm totally wrong, i read it on the debian forums
concerning that it still won't run, may have to go back to buster, anyways good luck with getting it to work & thank you for the advice!
I think you are right about the multiarch-support functions being native in bullseye. I had the following additional source added to my /etc/apt/sources.list form earlier experiments, and I'm guessing this is where the package is located:
I think that contrib and non-free are not necessary to locate the package. This should be added to the end of the sources.list in addition to the bullseye sources.
Based on elilla's comment, it might be easily playable on a virtual machine. Hopefully, it runs on buster with minimal effort in the virtual environment. Would your computer handle a virtual machine?
Edit 1: I tried it in a virtual machine and it worked fine. My installation of bullseye was new and did not have wine, after installing it the game works under bullseye without virtualization.
Edit 2: The package can be obtained directly from Debian's repository and installed with

I love this game but I suck at making money `(*>﹏<*)′ I am afraid I won't make the rent
I found this game on steam, that was before I was here on itch.io
Absolute fucking masterpiece

Where get steam key? I dont have it on download page
Hello! Will this work on mac m1? i have it on steam and it doesn't work there because my computer doesn't run 32bit anymore.
I have this game on steam. Is there a way to redeem it on itch.io?
Is this build of the game outdated? It says the download is for version 1.2.1.3, whereas on GOG it's 1.2.3.0.
Installing on Linux in 2021 (Debian buster):
The provided package depends on external libraries, which makes things hard especially because they’re i386 (32-bit) not amd64 (64-bit) libraries.
I needed to do this:
sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386
sudo apt update
sudo apt install zlib1g:i386 libxxf86vm1:i386 libgl1:i386 libopenal1:i386 libssl-dev:i386 libxrandr2:i386 libglu1-mesa:i386
Then there’s one library that runs a very old version (libssl 1.0.0) and we need to get it manually:
wget http://security.debian.org/debian-security/pool/updates/main/o/openssl/libssl1.0...
sudo dpkg -i libssl1.0.0_1.0.1t-1+deb8u12_i386.deb
