trying to run the linux version of the game and it seems to be missing libcrypto, I've had this issue with other games on fedora, I'm not sure how to solve it. I managed to get the game running through wine for now
I also had this problem on EndeavourOS and I ended up needing to install an "openssl-1.0" package. After that, there were more missing libraries, but they just needed to be copied over from Steam. There's probably a way to modify the launch script to include these automatically, but I didn't look too deeply into it.
Wine works well enough for now, always a shame when wine works better than native
This was cute! I thought the graphics were nicely polished, and the combination of silent incremental idle game with story cutscenes you personally cue yourself when you're ready for them is exactly what I want from a narrative idler.
Could you add the song that Kato shows you from their album to the universe drive ost thing? As far as i can tell it's not on there and it'd be great to have it with the rest!
That song is available separately! https://mek9.bandcamp.com/album/press-f
Absolutely loved this adorable game ^~^
How cutttttee ♡˖꒰ᵕ༚ᵕ⑅꒱
Wait... is the anime that Kato has only watched up to episode 7 actually "SSSS Gridman"? Because from the description it really sounds like it.
EDIT: oh and Kato has also played Outer Wilds, it seems. A cat person of culture.
Nice! Love it!
The game actually made me cry at the end... I loved it.
I hope I get to see you again someday, Star Cat!
really enjoyed playing this game.
i am in love with kato, thank you so much for this game its great
Very nice game.
This is a solid little idle game, made great by thoughtful writing. Well done!
Kato el Gato is really excellent.
IS THERE A PLUSH OF KATO? CUZ I NEED IT
oh god the things i would do for one
I would love to have one, too.
yesssssss
I get this Error after reaching a certain piece of Dialogue after helping Kato with the OS

Yup, same.
Anyone else got this error and managed to solve it?
/usr/lib/libcurl.so.4: version `CURL_OPENSSL_3' not found (required by ./space_mech_pilot)
Hi! The linux build might be outdated, can look into this for you!
No worries, not urgent. Looks like a cool game. Thanks for the sale.
Interesting. Why does this game even need curl?
I was able to get it to run ok (not using the itch launcher) by installing the libcurl-compat package and using:
$ LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libcurl.so.3 ./launch.sh
I'm not sure why the dependency on libcurl exists, but it would be nice to update to work with contemporary libcurl.
Thanks for suggesting the solution.
