Hello
i just recently found this game on rust-unofficial list. its seems there is no documentation for linux installation anywhere to be found. windows is easy cause they just use exe but for me linux i cant hardly know how to install it
i am using ubuntu 19.10 right now

Similar to the windows .exe, if you unzip the .tar.gz from the download page, you get an executable binary which you can run on the command line:

 ~/Downloads> gunzip citybound-v0.1.2-814-gf3cb7cb-linux.tar.gz
 ~/Downloads> ./citybound-v0.1.2-814-gf3cb7cb

@aeplay Consider adding a paragraph or two to the Live Builds page with something like @BudgieInWA's explanation for macOS, Windows, and Linux.

just realize after learning Rust thats how to run application. but yeah its still kinda lacks docs about this tho. maybe consider add some paragraph mention how to run it especially for begineer like me that dont know about this

When I attempt to run the extracted executable I get file not found: https://gist.github.com/alunduil/dae68a6b3131f113a63ff998244aa2be

Even readelf doesn't know what to do with this one but the file does specify the file as an ELF. Can anyone see what might be missing?

Feel free to tell me to open a different issue as well but I figured this might highlight what if anything might be missing from documentation.
