Install on Linux
Current releases ship as an AppImage — pick linux-x86_64 or linux-arm64 to match your CPU. For Steam Deck, use x86_64 (SteamOS is not generic ARM64 Linux).
Mirrors the official flow on twilitrealm.dev/install.

The home page lists the latest build per OS. For an older tag, filename patterns, or to-grab a package by hand, read Releases first, then use the button below only when you need the raw Assets list.

Dusklight on Steam Deck & SteamOS
Running Twilight Princess via Dusklight on Deck follows the same AppImage path, with a few handheld habits.
- Download linux-x86_64.AppImage from Download by system — not
linux-arm64. - Use Desktop Mode for the first run: save the AppImage somewhere easy to find (internal SSD or microSD), then
chmod +xif needed. - Keep your GameCube disc image on storage the file picker can reach; verify SHA-1 per Setup before troubleshooting crashes.
- If the game won't start, see FAQ and Known issues.
