Metori
A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, and Linux
Metori is a strategy sandbox game reminiscent of older arcade games. Control many ships, and use tactics to outmaneuver and outnumber everyone else.
Build a fleet. Capture territory. Defeat your enemies.
Features
- Smart, reactive AI commanders who strategize around your play.
- Sandbox Gameplay
- Local 1v1 Multiplayer (works with parsec!)
Content
- Randomly generated maps
- Many ship types with variants
- 3 different commander modes
- Campaign
- Replayable Instant Action Missions
Please note that this won't run on new MacOSX updates. Nothing I can do about that, sadly.
Please note that users have reported issues on modern builds of Linux Mint and Ubuntu, so the recommendation for these users is to run the windows version in Heroic Launcher, which should make most 32-bit executables work on modern linux systems.

tried playing the linux version on linux mint. it does not show the configuraton settings, just shows the unity splash screen, then crashes immediately.
Gonna test this and get back to you. I do know the windows version works well through proton,
EDIT:
I was unable to reproduce, I tested on the latest Pop!os and the latest Ubuntu. Ubuntu failed, and it seems to be because Ubuntu has dropped support for 32-bit executables. From my research, Linux Mint is based on Ubuntu, so it likely has the same issue. I'm going to see if I can put together a 64-bit build. Might take a couple days, but I'll update you when I have it.
The itch.io app created a crash report, but it was unable to send the report.
I've finished reviewing my options, and I am unable to build a 64-bit exe for you in a reasonable timeframe. Unfortunately, Linux Mint has just dropped support for games this old, and although I want to continue porting it up and supporting it, the engine I used for it, Unity3D, has also dropped support for the language is was programmed in, as well as the engine version it used, meaning the current game is completely locked from further development, including the ability to produce builds. I can't even open the game now in Unity, unless I pay a minimum fee of $200/month or come to a backroom deal for this specific version. Sadly I can't do that.
I was in the process of porting the game when that unity thing happened, so had to drop that port. At some point I will be bringing it to Godot (probably), which will remove this risk entirely. I'm sorry to say I am unable to fix your issue. My suggestion is to download the windows version from this page, add it as a non-steam game in steam, and run it through the proton runtime, which should work on your device. It's a big of a 'is this supported or not??' edgecase, where proton works fine on linux mint, even though 32-bit executables do not. The easier way to do the same without steam is the Heroic Games Launcher.
I will be adding a note to the store page for future players.
yeah, in the meantime I noticed, with Linux it is easier to download the Windows version and run it with vine, but to download the native Linux version.
so the tutorial seems to work fine, but clicking the campaign results in a vivid blank magenta screen. also, the title screen mentions that you can turn off the glitch effect in the options menu, but all i see are volume options?
this looks quite interesting though, i'm interested to see where it goes.
I've looked into this, and I'm planning to add a patch that should help with it.
The magenta screen most likely indicates that an effects shader(an overlay graphics effect) isn't supported on your computer. You might be able to have it work anyway by playing at different graphics quality? As for the options effect, I double checked and it should be visible. It should look like this:
Hey, give this new update a try. I've added a menu option to turn off an intensive effect on the campaign screen, which should let you run through the game.

hi, so sorry for taking so long to get back to you. that has fixed the issue entirely, thank you.
I played this game through the Bundle for Racial Justice and Equality. I'm not very good at it, but thanks for sharing!
Thank you for playing! Let me know if you have any questions!
Shows promise! There's a lot of interesting mechanics.
Thank you!
Love the style. Very evocative of Asteroid, but with a management game layer on top. Nicely done!
Thanks for playing! I really appreciate your comment!
This game is also available on steam, if you'd prefer that. You can find it in the "More Information" tab, or this link.
If you want to support me the most, use itch.io. Steam has a much worse cut.
