hi, I have a gameshell (V0.3 linux core) and I have followed you tutorial. The game appears in the menu with the icon but when I launch it, I come back to the menu. What I am doing wrong ? Thanks in advance.
Is there anything in the gameshell log? SSH into the device and check /tmp/x.log
You can watch the log while running the game by running 'tail -f /tmp/x.log'
The only thing the game requires is SDL2, SDL2_ttf and SDL2_mixer, which should be installed on the gameshell by default. I've tested on v0.3 and v0.4 and should work fine.
Let me know if the logs have any errors.
UPDATE: I just flashed a fresh sd card with v0.3 and put the game on it and it ran perfectly. I will need the logs to assist. Thanks.
The permissions must have gotten reset. SSH again and run the command 'chmod +x /home/cpi/apps/Menu/Ruine/Ruine'
By any chance did you unzip on a windows machine and then transfer? That might explain the permission issue. If so, I'll have to change the instructions to accomodate. Let me know, thanks!

You were right about unzip on a windows machine and thanks for the support and the solution. Have a nice day
