Notes

  1. Unity engine build: 2019.2.4[1]
  2. Despite demo version having Linux support, the developer has made the hard decision not to support it in commercial release of the game.[2]
  3. 3.0 3.1 File/folder structure within this directory reflects the path(s) listed for Windows and/or Steam game data (use Wine regedit to access Windows registry paths). Games with Steam Cloud support may store data in ~/.steam/steam/userdata/<user-id>/1229490/ in addition to or instead of this directory. The app ID (1229490) may differ in some cases. Treat backslashes as forward slashes. See the glossary page for details.
