...install Ruby or any used gems?

I don't want to make people install unnecessary things (if they are non-programmers) so I want to avoid putting on website or in readme "You need to install Ruby version <version here> and following gems <gem list>".

Use Ocra gem

gem install ocra

And then:
ocra Your_Game's_Main_File.rb

This will automatically detect used libraries and additional code sources and pack them in exe.
By adding --icon or --windows you can set application's icon or disable console window.

Is Ocra preferred over Releasy again now?
Parent - By lol_o2 Date 2014-01-09 18:31
Oh, yeah. There's also Releasy. I tried once to use it, but still prefer Ocra.
However Releasy has one important advantage that it can 'compile' multi-platform.

I recommend using Releasy, it's pretty nice.

Ocra supports Linux now?
