This is a tutorial for GameMaker users who wish to compile to Linux. (Updated for v2022.3+) This covers step-by-step instructions for setting up an Ubuntu VM. (Doesn't include Install of VirtualBox) The process of setting up a VM is also similar with Hyper-V, once you are in the OS the VM program doesn't matter. (This guide also covers how to run .AppImage files; Compiling Section)
