Merui loves video games, especially her favorite MMORPG, Rivenwell Online. Merui also has a very short temper, so when some JERK named Alistair steals a rare item from her, she's determined to exact revenge on him. Unfortunately, she has no idea who he is in real life. But hey, that's never stopped anyone, right? Take control of Merui and make new friends, balance schoolwork and fun, go shopping, search for the culprit, and maybe even discover a new romance.

Hello,

just downloaded the game and sneaked in for some minutes - seems to be a really nice novel, congratulations! The only issues i'm facing is, that the game won't start from within the desura client. You have to navigate to the gamefolder and manually start RE-alistair.sh (i'm using UbuntuLinux 64bit). It seems to me that the installed Launcher points to the Windows-Executable. Is there an easy way to add a specific option to the Launcher, so it will start the game correctly on Linux systems?

Regards

I think it's a desura issue: it doesn't expand the LAUNCHER_EXE variable correctly...
