Inspired by some of the classics like Return to Castle Wolfenstein and DOOM, the free shooter Darkenstein 3D has released and it's a rip-roaring good time.
It’s not Linux native according to the icons in Steam, so try one of the Proton compatibility layers.
Proton Hotfix wouldn’t run it for me but Proton 9.0 got me into the game’s prologue and difficulty select (which requires walking around). Haven’t played any further than that though, so can’t tell if there are to be any problems with other levels.
Was able to modify sound, graphics and mouse settings with no trouble too.
Edit: Made it through to the first intermission screen with no problems. Well, at least not software related. Skill issues are another matter.
Hmm, still not working for me. 8, 9, Experimental, and Hotfix all fail to run the game.
Edit: Actually, looks like I might have a different problem. Proton seems to be failing to launch anything at all.
Edit 2: Looks like something went wrong with the way Proton interacts with NTFS drives. Moving the install back to the primary ext4 drive fixed it. Removing the compatdata folders on the NTFS volume and replacing it with a symlink to the primary compatdata folder also fixes it. Weird, because this is the first time I’ve encountered this issue, but it’s apparently fairly common.
