Installation
You need steamcmd and wget. Install them with your package manager.
On Ubuntu that would be:
sudo apt install steamcmd wget


Now use steamcmd to download the macOS version of the game (the Windows version won't work):
(note: that's 1 line)
steamcmd +login USERNAME PASSWORD +@sSteamCmdForcePlatformType macos +force_install_dir $HOME/LVC-tmp +app_update 361990 validate +quit
Replace USERNAME and PASSWORD with your Steam account name and password.
The installation directory ("$HOME/LVC-tmp" in this case) has to be an absolute path and mustn't contain any spaces!


Move to the new directory and create a Linux version from the game files:
(note: those are 4 lines)
cd $HOME/LVC-tmp wget https://github.com/darealshinji/UnityEngine2deb/archive/master.tar.gz -O- | tar xfz - ./UnityEngine2deb-master/copyunityengine -y LakeviewCabinCollection.app echo "361990" > "$HOME/LVC-tmp/LvC Collection-Linux/steam_appid.txt"

The Linux game files are now in $HOME/LVC-tmp/LvC Collection-Linux. You can start the game by executing LvC Collection.x86 (32 bit) or LvC Collection.x86_64 (64 bit) within that directory.


You can optionally add a banner image for the settings window (you need imagemagick to be installed):
wget https://steamhost.cn/cdn_akamai_steamstatic_com/steam/apps/361990/header.jpg convert header.jpg "$HOME/LVC-tmp/LvC Collection-Linux/LvC Collection_Data/ScreenSelector.png"
Notes
The game sometimes crashes on start. Just retry it until it works.
