Alas, it's true. While the platforms Crayon programs can export to can run on Linux, the compiler itself was originally written in C# back when it was just a tinker-hobby project and does too many Windows-y things. The OSX support is based on Mono but is somewhat flakey in certain environments. Eventually I have plans to migrate the compiler to another language (possibly Crayon itself).
It looks like you're using Visual Studio 2015. Could you rewrite it into .NET Core so that it can run on Linux?
