So, like many #GameDev #programming folks, I'm doing a bit of saturday work from home to support the project as it is getting closer to release.

Since my home desktop is primarily a #Linux system, I decided to try and see if I could compile a #Windows game without Windows.

Short answer: No. I could not. 

There is actually an #AUR package that gives you a working #MSVC compiler in #Wine, but there is no way to get #MSBuild to work to build .sln and .vcxproj files.

I wonder how much worse the build time would be in a VM 🤔
