I prefer the universal zip via torrent. Fast and easy.
and...talking about the universal zip:
ok, im on it, this is Linux mint 13 (ubuntu 12.04), the zip file is uncompresed, and now ...
How do I run the game?
Mark it as executable and run it as ./daemon from that folder.
I did, but still not working.
In a shell, for security reasons you need to prefix the executable in the local folder with ./
So ./daemon.x86_64 should work (or double clicking on it too).
thanks, it seems to run now, but ... this is what I get and nothing else happens...
Hm. That's the same problem someone else reported. We clearly need to look into this.
Ah good, now can you run "gdb ./daemon" type r <enter> then after 10 seconds do Ctrl C, then type "bt full" <enter> and paste the content of ypur console? (you might need to do sudo apt-get install gdb first)

What??????
Does this mean I'll have to wait a month to play?
It means there is a bug none of the devs can reproduce so it is very hard to fix. If we can debug it, we'll probably do a point release, worst case II will provide you with a daemon.x86_64 that works. Also keep in mind we are an alpha so breakage is bound to happen.
EDIT: could a mod split the topic, this is realy off topic.
