Um… isn’t this supposed to be cross-platform? Why does it only include a Windows .exe and not a Linux .sh for example?
To clarify, for Ren’Py VNs like this one, the Windows and Linux version uses the exact same data files except that, for Windows, you would launch it via the .exe while for Linux you would launch it via the .sh
You can see this with the following small 47MB free VN “Camera” whereby it includes both a “Camera.exe” and a “Camera.sh”:

So I went and put together a solution for Linux myself; just extract the contents of the following 7z to where the .exe is located:
https://web.archive.org/web/20230611222605/https://ttm.sh/Bq3.7z
The resulting folder structure should have the .sh in the same location as the .exe while the "lib" folder in the 7z should overwrite the existing "lib" folder from this torrent (it won't actually overwrite any of the files inside of torrent's existing "lib" folder and instead just adds the necessary library files required for the Linux version, therefore you can actually still seed this torrent without issue).

And in case anybody needs it, I did the same for its sequel Distant Memoraĵo - you can get its corresponding Linux .sh and lib files from the following 7z (the exact same instructions as above apply here as well):
https://web.archive.org/web/20230611224335/https://ttm.sh/BqC.7z
Welp it turns out the 7z compression utility I used doesn't retain the "Allow this file to run as a program" aspect of .sh files. Therefore, if you used my above links, you'd have to manually set that.
So let's try this again - exact same files, except that I've used "file-roller" (what is simply called "Compress" on Ubuntu-derived distros) which technically results in a file size that's the teeniest bit larger, but at least the .sh files retain the "Allow this file to run as a program" aspect.
The Expression Amrilato - files required for Linux:

Distant Memoraĵo - files required for Linux:
https://web.archive.org/web/20230612025834/https://ttm.sh/Bqg.7z
Instructions are the same as before - extract the contents of a given 7z archive to where the .exe is located so that the .sh should be in the same location as the .exe, and the "lib" folder from the 7z archive(s) should overwrite the existing "lib" folder from this torrent (again, no files will actually be overwritten inside of the torrent's "lib" folder so you can continue to seed without issue)
