Thought of a 64 bit version, or including all the required libraries with the game?
I'm sure it would be super low on the priority list, but getting the game to work on Ubuntu every time I install/reinstall/upgrade is becoming more and more of a pain. Especially now that they killed ia32-libs. Just thought I would mention it...
If anyone needs help getting it running on ubuntu 13.10, there's a package in the Software Center called Lin-ProLi that seems like it has all the libraries needed.

Re: 64 bit version
I'm not a big fan of using 64 bit when it isn't needed. The fastest mode on new processors would probably be x32 which gives you the new registers and instructions from 64 bit mode without doubling the size of the pointers.
I guess I could make rpm/deb packages for it so it'll automatically handle the dependencies. Can't say that's a high priority right now though.

Re: 64 bit version
Thanks.
Just wanted to document that I also had to get "libasound2-plugins:i386" to get the sound/ALSA to work. Might help someone down the road... (probably me
