Step-by-Step Installation Guide

Follow these steps carefully to install AMA!UNDERFELL on your Chromebook:

1. Enable Linux Apps

If you haven't already, you'll need to enable Linux apps on your Chromebook. Go to your system settings, click on the "About Chrome OS" section, and under the developer section, choose to set up Linux.

2. Download the Game

Visit the official AMA!UNDERFELL page and download the game files. Once downloaded, move the zip file to your Linux files folder.

3. Install Wine

Wine is a compatibility layer that allows Windows applications to run on Linux systems. We'll use it to run AMA!UNDERFELL. Open a terminal and run the following commands one by one:

wget -nc https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/winehq.key && sudo apt-key add winehq.key

sudo apt update
sudo apt install --install-recommends winehq-stable winbind

These commands will add 32-bit architecture support, add the Wine repository, update your system, and install Wine along with its dependencies.
