True, but I will still make sure it's updated (Linux, OpenGL, etc.) before we completely abandon the project.

This isn't a priority as long as there's a workaround though. For example, Linux fixes will likely require re-doing the installer (lots of work) and I prefer to do that when I work on the installer for the new game. Saves time, like that.

Hi I recently reinstalled the game on a whim and it won't launch. It used to work but now I get the following error in the terminal when I try to launch:

ALSA lib dlmisc.c:254:(snd1_dlobj_cache_get) Cannot open shared library /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/alsa-lib/libasound_module_rate_speexrate_best.so
ALSA lib pcm_rate.c:1399:(snd_pcm_rate_open) Cannot find rate converter
Fatal Python error: (pygame parachute) Segmentation Fault
Aborted (core dumped)

This is the Steam version and I haven't tried the non-steam version again (got both versions because I like the game a lot) and I'm running Arch x64. Turning off the steam overlay doesn't seem to help. Do I have to create a symlink for the missing library or is the segfault something else entirely? The log in .uoc is empty.
