Hey, soldier! Are you ready to face 45 missions packed with dangerous obstacles? Nothing an experienced soldier like you can't deal with: electric saws, electrified fences, ditches, etc. And some bigger devices that we fondly call "killing machines". But don't panic, soldier! To complete these missions you will be provided with diverse contraptions: barriers, springboards, safety nets, speed-ups and more. And if you want to take a break, you can enjoy yourself playing a retro arcade game in the headquarters. Ten-hut! Guide an irresistible gang of avian soldiers to safety in this unique puzzle game where you create the levels using a wide assortment of contraptions and then watch the action play out. System Recommendation: - Intel Core Duo 1.8Ghz or AMD Athlon 3600+ - 3D Graphics Card with 128MB RAM (nVidia or ATI) - 1024 megabytes (MB) of RAM

Ok, so I paid for, then downloaded, then installed Non Flying Soldiers on my computer. It's 64-bit Ubuntu 12.04 LTS. Yes, I have ia32-libs and like a thousand other 32-bit libraries installed. I also made sure to install the engine that was left in the game folder, so that's taken care of.

However, when I try to launch, it tells me "Failed to launch item." This is followed by "Failed to read [/home/USER/Downloads/desura/common/non-flying-soldiers/Non_Flying_Soldiers]: Couldn't open the file [/home/USER/Downloads/desura/" where USER is obviously replaced by my username.

Any ideas?

Great, thanks so much! I'll keep my eye out for the update and let you know what happens. :) Thank you so much for replying so quickly and trying to get it fixed so quickly.

Worked perfectly! This is the first game I've bought on Desura, and I'll definitely be recommending it to my friends. Gotta go to work so I can't play it yet, but I can't wait to get home later....
