Use Wine: https://www.winehq.org/
 
There are some issues, when you run the Windows version of Speedy Blupi/Eggbert on Linux via Wine.
 
== Background music does not work in Wine ==
Wine usually outpus this error:
 
<code>0194:err:winediag:MIDIMAP_drvOpen No software synthesizer midi port found, Midi sound output probably won't work.</code>
 
=== '''How to fix it:''' ===
 
# install fluidsynth ''(for Debian: apt install fluidsynth)''
# Download a sound font and place it somewhere you like. Examples:
#* Windows General MIDI soundfont
#** https://files.openeggbert.com/Speedy_Eggbert/Windows/Default%20Windows%20MIDI%20Soundfont/gm.sf2 (''source: https://musical-artifacts.com/artifacts/713<nowiki/>)''
#* http://www.vogonsdrivers.com/getfile.php?fileid=500
# Run:  <code>fluidsynth -a pulseaudio /path/to/soundfont</code>
#* Add an <code>&</code> at the end, if you want to run it in the background. Or you can configure its autostart at the boot
 
''Note: Sound game effect works. Format for sound is WAV. Format for background music is MIDI.''

Speedy Eggbert runs on React OS.
 
* But more investigation is needed.
 
'''Issues found until now:'''
 
* Game play is not possible. Blupi/Eggbert is moving at the right direction without pressing keys. Fix was not yet found.
 
'''What works:'''
 
* Demo playing
 
== How to run on Steam Deck ==
 
# Open the file /DATA/Config.def with a text editor. Change line like <code>CD-Rom=V:\US</code> to <code>CD-Rom=-nocd</code>
# Copy the installation directory on the Deck.
# Create a "non-steam" shortcut on the deck and point it to BLUPI.EXE
# Select the compatibility tab, check "Force compatibility layer" and select "Proton 7.0"
# Add the following to "Launch options" on the shortcut: <code>PROTON_USE_WINED3D=1 PROTON_NO_ESYNC=1 PROTON_NO_FSYNC=1 %command% -nocd</code>
# Switch back to gaming mode (if you were on desktop mode), make sure the controller profile is set to Keyboard + Mouse, launch it
 
Background music is not working. You can fix it by installing Qsynth and sound fonts.

== How to enable the cheat-player ==
 
== How to create a replay ==
Conditions: cheat-player must be enabled
 
# Open the player and take world 300 to 320 <ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CclakPC0rxE</ref>
# Delete the old level and create a new level or load another level
# Play the level.
#* If you loose a life, the replay can have a mistake. This maybe impacts only version 2, because there the death animation is not deterministic (2 Eggbert death animations exist) (Missing reference, it needs to be added)
This is stub, extend this section (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CclakPC0rxE)
