Glad you did it...still odd that a recent game only runs with 16-bit color, but that's nice.

*If* you do not want to limit all of your computer, you can google something about "X Servers". That way, you will be able to create a different X server to play your game in and manually set the resolution to 16-bit. SO you will end up with two X servers -- One, the main, at 32-bit (if you wish) and the other at 16-bit, whenever you need to play it. I use this solution all the time, but someone might have a better suggestion.
