TLDR: The Linux build is now an AppImage and should be more compatible with various distros.

THE LONG STORY: I recently got covid for the first time, and while my brain was being turned to soup by a horrible fever, I decided to take my mind off things I would do something even more unpleasant by trying out Linux. Apparently Ubuntu is now passé and everyone's about Fedora, so I put that on an old machine and was annoyed to learn that I couldn't get Mixolumia to run on it.

As it turns out, the different Linux distros don't all agree on how an application should be put together. There are a few different solutions to this problem, some of which seem more popular than others, but I did some research and found out GameMaker recently added support for AppImage, which makes a nice little bundle that should be more compatible no matter what you're running.

So now the game runs on Ubuntu and Fedora. You can even run the itch version on Steam Deck if you hate the perfectly functional Proton version for whatever reason. I don't know your life.

I'm still providing the Linux version here "as-is" because, honestly, the whole thing is still a big mystery to me and there's no way I can even pretend I know how to offer y'all tech support. But hopefully this version will be a little nicer for the six people who want it.
