Humble Bundle: PC and Android 8

Hi there

I just bought the Humble Bundle: PC and Android 8 and just ran into some trouble with some Linux game ports so I thought I should open a thread here to share my findings. Feel free to add yours here or ask for help.

Gemini Rue

This is a point'n'click game using Adventure Game Studio, a game engine which have been open-sourced and so ported to a lot of platform.

Out of the box, sound doesn't work. You have to do 2 thing in order to make it work :

First, you have to download this file, rename it to patches.dat and move it in the game folder.

Second, you must set up Timidity. See the wiki for configuration. I choose Fluidr3 soundfont. Start Timidity as your current user :

timidity -iA

Then, launch the game and you should hear rain sound at the main screen.

Gemini Rue worked flawlessly for me out of the box (and I am fairly sure I don't have timidity installed).   Also tried Anomaly and AAAAAAAAAAAAAA for Awesome.  No issues with either one.

I have timidity++ installed, but I don't think, that's why I have no problem with Gemini Rue whatsoever. Also I don't have PulseAudio.

That's not very helpful to others who may have had the same problem as you. Don't do that.

Re: Humble Bundle: PC and Android 8

no timidity and yes pulseaudio, and the rain makes noise just fine for me as well. i'm getting a crash when trying to start a new game, though.
