A Lozenge is a very short interactive story by Party for Introverts, in fact, its duration is of less than an hour. The story is about a mother and daughter concerted by a road trip to the new living place, after mother settles upon a divorce from her husband.
I just noticed that the status on the main page here still says "in development", you may want to change that to "released". Some potential customers may be turned off if they think it is in early access.
Hi @wil492, sorry you are having trouble launching the game. We double-checked and everything seems to work properly on our end. What kind of error pops up? Could it be connected to your Mac safety restrictions for apps downloaded via browser?
Try launching it from the Itch.io desktop app with Wine installed on your system. It ran perfectly for me that way on Ubuntu 20.04 - many Windows games do.
I'll tell you what I tell everyone who buts in with this crap: I know of wine, I have used it; submitted bug reports; and donated money to the project. I wasn't asking how the game ran in Wine, I was asking whether the developer had any plans for a native version.
I apologize for attempting to help, and won’t do it to you again. However, since this is a public comment thread, I will leave my comment there in case someone merely interested in playing the game wants to know how to do so on Linux.
In the future it would be beneficial to add your report to the Wine database, They don't even have this game listed yet so you could add it and your experience. If I am looking to find how a Windows game runs in Wine I check there first.

That's fixed now, thank you, not sure how we missed that.
Is there a bug with the mac version? I am unable to open it.

Are there any plans for a Linux version ?
Not yet, but we'll keep Linux in mind if we do any platform expansions in the future, thanks.
