Flatpak support

To install the launcher via flatpak you will first have to make sure that you have flathub's remote installed

flatpak remote-add --if-not-exists flathub https://flathub.org/repo/flathub.flatpakrepo

After installing flathub's remote you install launcher.moe's remote

flatpak remote-add --if-not-exists launcher.moe https://gol.launcher.moe/gol.launcher.moe.flatpakrepo

Now the only thing remaining is to install the launcher

flatpak install launcher.moe com.gitlab.KRypt0n_.an-anime-game-launcher

Some additional configuration is possible when using the flatpak. For info about this, see this page

Chinese version

To use Chinese version of the game make sure that you have

server: cn

field in your config.yaml file (settings -> launcher folder). If your system uses the Chinese language - then it should be selected automatically. If not, then close the launcher, replace server: global with server: cn, and run it again. After that launcher will download the Chinese version of the game and the patch
