Game Dev Tycoon: Error Loading libXrandr

Game Dev Tycoon: Error Loading libXrandr

I bought it from their site and got a fresh install of Ubuntu 13.04. However, when I try to run Game Dev Tycoon from the terminal I get the following error:

gamedevtycoon: error while loading shared libraries: libXrandr.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Try running:

sudo apt-get install libxrandr2:i386

I am getting some errors running this game as well (error while loading shared libraries: libudev.so.0). I have libudev1 installed, it just won't run. There may have to be some manual linking.

EDIT:

There was some linking needed for mine: How do I resolve a "Cannot open shared object file libudev.so.0" error?

It's a 32-bit program. I assume you're on 64-bit Ubuntu. You need the 32-bit libs.

sudo apt-get install ia32-libs

That gets me to the point where it runs. Except I just get a blue background and nothing happens. Hopefully you'll have better luck.
