As some others mentioned, use Lazarus[0], it'd be the easiest way and you get a single exe file with no external dependencies.
It has been a long time since i made this video, but here is one[1] where i make a 2D tilemap editor in Lazarus from scratch - it starts with installing Lazarus (note that the video is old and some things have changed but 99% of it would be the same anyway).
Lazarus is crossplatform so here is another one where i make a small puzzle game under Linux/XFCE. Also starts with installing (which is a tiny bit more complicated because i need to build it from source - still a minute or so and strictly speaking you can get it running from your repository but chances are it will be broken and you avoid several potential issues if you build it from source on Linux).
I might make a new video at some point though as i'm back on Linux as my main OS nowadays and Window Maker as my window manager, it'd be the farthest from how things would look on Windows :-P. Though i might capture it in a VM if possible (the two videos i linked at were from a VM).
