Hello Gog team,

The launcher start.sh is buggy, and cannot launch. It returns java help :
Running Slay the Spire
Usage: java [-options] class [args...]
(to execute a class)
or java [-options] -jar jarfile [args...]
(to execute a jar file)



I replaced line 20 and it seems ok.

20c20
< ./jre/bin/java -jar desktop-1.0.jar
---
> ./"jre/bin/java"

Confirmed .. and the proposed change fixes the starter

I don't even get the java error:
start.sh: 6: Bad substitution
start.sh: 8: source: not found
start.sh: 11: get_gameinfo: not found
start.sh: 12: get_gameinfo: not found
start.sh: 13: get_gameinfo: not found
start.sh: 28: define_option: not found

You can simply execute "/path/to/Slay the Spire/game/SlayTheSpire" per doubleclick (e.g. "~/GOG Games/Slay the Spire/game/SlayTheSpire") or change the starters as follows:

Exec="/home/thomas/GOG Games/Slay the Spire/start.sh" ""
->
Exec="/home/thomas/GOG Games/Slay the Spire/game/SlayTheSpire"

replace /home/thomas/GOG Games/ with your path.

This worked for me, but strangely it didn't work immediately. I think installing jre-openjdk solved it.

Anyway, the start.sh that comes with the game still doesn't work. I can play now, however, this is what counts.

Bump, over a year and this hasn't been fixed.

Thank you for the workaround.

What I personally ended up doing was putting ./SlayTheSpire instead of the line with the java, works for me on Ubuntu 20.04

January 2023 and the sh script is not fixed.

thanks for the workaround

This works for me too - replaced this line:
./"jre/bin/java"
With the following:
./SlayTheSpire

As of the time of writing this, the start.sh script is still not fixed.
Confirming that this workaround worked for me.

Tried everything but the Linux version just plain refused to work. I ended up installing the Windows version and running it through Proton.
