as seen on steamdeck
Looks like someone cast “Escape Velocity”, which I think is a druid spell.
Surely that is just the Kerbal Space Program-DLC?
Was my first thought too
At a quick glance that looked like a screenshot of Kerbal Space Program.
Yeah. I was like someone summoned the kraken.
Looks fine.
That’s what it’s supposed to look like. Follow the blue curve until you reach the forest of crazy jagged polygons, you’ll have to kill the perfectly rendered npc once you make it through. After that, walk forwards through the interminable void until you reach baldurs gate 3, who you’ll have to kill to beat the game.
I can’t remember if it was BG3 or another game I played recently, but I remember the Linux version sucked and I used the windows version and proton instead and it was way better.
It looks like you’re doing just fine. Couldn’t duplicate the bug, closing the ticket.
Relevant xkcd

ah the classic RESOLVED WORKSFORME
wanna share your docker container perhaps?
Don’t forget to retro thrust before you reenter the atmosphere
Eh you can probably just aerobrake.
Weird I played it on my deck. I don’t have that many hours into it though.
Nice try! That’s obviously Kitten Space Agency! /j
I genuinely thought this was a KSP screenshot at first glance lmao. Larian could even take a page out of Bethesda’s playbook and call it a feature. OP hit the ultra rare Illithid Nautiloid spacewalk sequence - only .01% of players have seen this!
Is that a Willburger reference?
No, Kitten Suace Agency is the spiritual successor to Kerbal Space Program and the screenshot looks like gameplay from Orbit in these games.
Ok, now we need a Kitten Sauce Agency restaurant game
Is this your idea of a bug report? Can you replicate this error?
I didn’t even know BG3 had a Linux build, yet another W for Larian. On that note, this has been my experience with the majority of Linux builds. Most of the time it’s easier for me to just use proton, because when I see the Linux build I 1. Have to make sure it’s actually working properly and 2. Have to make sure it’s an up-to-date version; I’ve had multiple games with an old outdated Linux build alongside a shiny new windows release. Anyone else have this experience? Am I doing anything wrong?
99% of the time Linux native builds don’t work right, only work on arch or some other bleed edge build, only work on Debian lts or some other beyond ancient build.
Or just randomly explode for no reason.
Frankly it’s a big part of why a lot of people just say fuck native Linux builds. Just target a preset known system. Which is what windows builds basically are.
Steam runtimes, proton, etc. its more reliable, less likely to break and going to actually be reasonable for anything short of a billion dollar company to hope to provide support for.
Seriously as much as native Linux would be nice. We are 20 years from it being remotely realistic. So please devs just focus on proton compatibility and we can talk about native Linux later.
Outside of like vintage story and factario I can’t think of a decent Linux native version. Even then they break more frequently then their windows version or just flat out don’t work with mods or have other issues.
this has been my experience with the majority of Linux builds
well this Linux build was made for the Steam Deck in particular, so it should work very well normally.
No, the Linux native support is dog shit with most of the games. They release one fucking prototype client or whatever and then never update it again but its being listed as Linux native, fucking degenerates I hate them so much, why on gods earth do I have to play the windows version of some games while they offer a Linux native client. LISA is one of those fucking games if you read this and work there or at any game studio doing this shit I hope you suffer in hell where you belong.
TL;DR yes its normal
The only game I’ve ever played whose linux client was up to snuff was Stardew Valley.
Stardew Valley broke its networking capabilities on the steam deck an update or two ago, now I can’t play with mods on the Deck. Big fucking thanks.

That the issue you’re talking about? Seems more like a steam deck/API issue than a stardew issue if it is… but they have work arounds/solutions in that link, if this is the problem you’re referring.
There’s a newish indie game I LOVE called Bloodthief, their Linux build was flawless.
Factorio is another good mention for its Linux support. It even has a feature that saves in the background on Linux that the windows version doesn’t have. Doesn’t matter much for the base game, but it’s really nice if you’re placing a big mod pack like Space Exploration etc.
There’s a stutter in the windows version whenever the games saves that the Linux build doesn’t have basically.
I havent played factorio seriouslysince it hit version 1.0.
I feel like I’ve gotten too old, too slow, and too dumb to play it now. last time I tried I spent 4 hours just trying to make a basic copper and iron production chain.
I get the feeling. It’s been about a year and a half since I sunk good time into that game, but I haven’t been playing much games over that entire time tbh. The feeling of figuring things out and building a good production chain is unmatched though IMO. Few games satisfy me as much to figure out as Factorio.
With the new Space Age DLC and free 2.0 update, it’s a great time to try and get back into it! Highly recommend it.
I love your energy here, thank you for the affirmation.
Looks like a skill issue to me.
Everyone in your party is healthy so nothing to be concerned about.
