Hi, I got the Linux version through the Ukraine bundle, but I can't run it because it requires libsteam_api.so.

Same. If anyone has a workaround, please let me know.

Hi,


We have uploaded a new Linux build. We're unable to test it (no access to Linux machine). If you decide to update the game to try it out, please let us know if it works ok!

Thanks! I made it as far as the splash screen and the photosensitivity warning this time, but after that I got a blank screen, sadly. (It's probably something on my end, though. Such are the travails of the Linux gamer. Hopefully sysyme has better luck.)

It's not on your end. It just locks up on a black screen after the photosensitivity splash screen fades out, hogging up some 85% of my CPU (Ryzen 3700x) until I kill the process.  I did leave it running for a couple of minutes in case it was just precompiling some complex shaders or something, but no luck. Couldn't get any useful debug output out of it either. I guess I'm giving up for now.


The game looks like something I might enjoy, so I'll definitely keep an eye out for updates. Let me know if I can help with testing.

Shucks! This is the only game we've built with Unreal, so we just hit the button to build for Linux and hoped it would work.

May require some deeper dives into renderer issues :( What are your device specs and OS?

@tuubi Thanks for the offer to test! We may have to take you up on that offer later.

My specs: Ryzen 7 3700X / Radeon RX 5700 XT / 16GiB. The OS is Linux Mint 20.3, which--as far as games are concerned--is basically Ubuntu 20.04 LTS. I run the latest stable Mesa (opengl/vulkan drivers) and latest stable Linux kernel (5.16).

awh crap, good news im not alone in this issue, bad news i dont think its something the devs can fix rm but im not sure.

I was able to get it to work (at least for the five minutes so far that I've played it) using Proton with the following steps:


1. Download and install the Windows build.

2. Add it to the Steam launcher as a non-Steam game.

3. In Steam, right-click on the entry and select Properties.

4. Edit 'TARGET' to point to SCU.exe and "START IN" to the installation directory.  (This may have been done for you automatically but I had to go back and do it by hand.)

5.  Select "Compatibility", check the "Force the use..." checkbox and select "Proton 6.3-8". (Other versions may work as well or better; YMMV.)

6. Launch the game from Steam.

The one thing that doesn't work is the menu backdrop.  That's apparently a video playback issue in Proton.  Other than that, I was able to walk around the mall pretty well.


I also tried it using stock wine (Ubuntu 20.04, Wine 5.0) and it runs (including the video, oddly enough) but a lot of the textures are missing during play.
