Twine game made on Windows. How do I make it run on MacOS and Linux as well?

Like the title says, I'm making a game in Twine 2, Sugarcube 2.3.1 on a Windows 10 machine. I don't know how to make it so that it will run on MacOS and Linux as well. I know MacOS has a different file structure and I know really nothing about Linux. I see games on here that will run on all 3 OS's so anyone who has made that work, your help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

You keep your media files relative to the html file, so why wouldn't it work on mac and linux as it is?

Twine games are basically web pages. Web pages are opened by web browsers. The way they work should be the same regardless of what OS you are using. Otherwise you would be surfing the internet and come across pages that say "Sorry, this page is only accessible on Windows OS."

If you keep the paths of the media relative to your html file, you should be fine. If anything, you should be careful when you write the file names on the games. For example, Pic.jpg called as "pic.jpg" in the game may work on windows, but it won't work on linux or mac, they are case sensitive.

Wait a minute, I saw the screen caps on your game, and they look really good. Good luck on your project man.

Thanks man, but I'm gay. However, I might download it anyways just to see how well you designed it. I'm close to put a dev blog thread here about my game. No worries, it's a M/M game, so we're not competing here.
