Cool game, pretty hard too, I love it!
If you are trying to get it running on Linux (e.g. in WSL), you need libfontconfig, libxrender and libxtst installed. This worked for me on Ubuntu:
sudo apt install libfontconfig1 libxrender1 libxtst6
export LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT=0
./Setris-1.2
(I use WSL as a more powerful sandbox to run things. Windows Sandbox is, unfortunately, not capable enough to run graphics-heavy stuff as it seems to use RDP.)
- Cu3PO42 3y agoWSLg (Microsoft's implementation of graphical programs for WSL) also uses RDP internally. So I wouldn't think that is the issue with the Sandbox, unless you set up some other way of X forwarding. WSLg is still hardware accelerated and Sandbox might not be, however.
- janosdebugs 3y agoGood to know, but WSLg seems to be much faster that the graphics in Sandbox, even with GPU acceleration.

- olodus 3y ago/ is only taking off now that a large corporation is backing it and unifying how to do stuff more.
- janosdebugs 3y agoI don't know, I had a pretty good experience with Steam/Ubuntu. Most games worked out of the box.
- passwd 3y agoIt's an equivalent to not distributing the necessary DLLs in Windows, which is something that I've definitely seen happening before as well.
