It looks really cool and I'd love to play it but I don't have a Windows PC. Any chance you have plans to make it available on Linux/Steam Deck?

Works fine under proton for me - have you turned on the steam option to use a compatibility layer for games that haven't been tested?

It runs with that option but trees don't render properly so it's not perfect.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

There is no reason, why you cannot have both.

There is: developer time and focus. Not everything needs to be gamified and have "player retention", etc.

The context was that the parent poster was afraid of "Adding more game elements would ruin that aspect."

My point was that it is quite trivial (and useful) to seperate the sandbox from the gamification.
