This game looks really cool, but unfortunately I'm on a Chromebook (not by choice). That means I can't run .exe files and have to do most things through Google's build-in Linux emulator called "Crostini", which is Debian *based*, but *not Debian*, so unless someone has Crostini/Chromebook-specific instructions (which thankfully Dwarf Fortress does) then it's about a 50/50 chance of it working or it having some unaccounted for error that nobody online has thoroughly discussed.
You might try to use shell script (https://raw.githubusercontent.com/igroglaz/Tangaria_release/master/tangaria-setup.sh) to install it under Linux; I suppose it will work. If not, please report to us so we will be able to help.
Well, first off I had to change permissions with the file, so I did
chmod u+x tangaria-setup.sh and the first time it tried to install, this happened:
inflating: Tangaria_release-master/zlib1.dll
./tangaria-setup.sh: line 737: make: command not found
*info* running aclocal (-I m4)
./autogen.sh: 38: aclocal: not found
*error* aclocal failed. (exit code = 127)
I did some googling and tried getting around this by using
sudo apt-get install autotools-devsudo apt-get install automakesudo apt install makeWhich allowed it to progress somewhat, and now the error is:
inflating: Tangaria_release-master/zlib1.dll

Note: You have chosen to compile for installation, with data files
in standard locations. For development, you may wish to consider using
--with-no-install which will leave the game to run from the directory
into which it was extracted and compiled.

Tried again, this time adding (before running the shell script)
sudo apt-get install gccWhich made it spit out whole loads of text, but I
think that got it to work.

So... How do I actually launch the program now?
ChromeOS wants to claim there's some kind of launch icon; however, clicking this does nothing. Is there a command I can use in the terminal?
Update: After restarting my computer, clicking the Tangaria launch icon now does... Still nothing, as my taskbar suggests it is trying to open but accomplishing nothing but bogging my processor down until I restart (can't even use task manager to stop it).
