Bottlehead created the topic: Portable Linux Version (AppImage)

Windows already has one thanks to Portable Apps (https://portableapps.com/apps/games/pokerth_portable), but I was wondering if it would be possible to get an official AppImage version. It's esscentially from what I understand, a standalone Linux application that has all the dependencies (and file locations depending on the developer) bundled into the AppImage executable so that it can run on most Linux distros as well as be able to run on a flash drive without needing to install anything.

Hi Bottlehead,

if snap is ok, too: try this: https://snapcraft.io/pokerth

I never dived into building an AppImage.

Kind regards,
sp0ck

EDIT: what you are looking for seems to be here: https://www.pokerth.net/download - PokerTH-1.1.2-linux.tar.bz2
