I think Debian just does things differently as far as where it puts libraries. If these things are installed, they should be in the PATH for your application to find, and I'm not sure why they aren't. I'v had similar problems with other 3rd party software. I'll keep looking into it, and if I find anything out I'll certainly let you know.

Could not get this running on Debian testing. Here is my solution. Would not start saying it couldn't find /usr/lib/dri/iris_dri.so. I found it in /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/dri/ and linked /usr/lib/dri/ there. Now I get a bit further, but get this error.

So I found libstdc++.so.6 in /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libstdc++.so.6. Rather that creating another symlink, I started the game with LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libstdc++.so.6 ./Skeletris and it worked. Seems like Debian puts things in /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/ that are expected to be in /usr/lib/ and I'm not sure why. I blame Debian. Looking forward to playing this game though.
This game is exciting, fun and really gets the heart pumping. I feel like the difficulty level is just too high. I put a couple hours in and only cleared level 11. Still, every level feels great when you finally get there. This game mechanic could really grow into a game with a lot of depth. The mods are very creative although it's always hard to decide whether to spend or save. It's definitely not a roguelike, though. That label might confuse some people.
