you must add -d3d11 to your launch options if you are experiencing the unreal crash error. other than that, it works good.

The game runs almost perfectly, but crashes on level 2 when you play with friends on Windows.

8 months ago

Tinker Steps:Custom Proton: GE

Significant Bugs:Yes

Can't play on level 2 with Windows players.

The only workaround I found to play on level 2 with your friends is to play on Windows.

If you plan to play on Windows after having played on Linux, you might also want to transfer the savefiles that are located inside %localappdata% since the game doesn't support steam cloud.

I hope this bug will be fixed soon.
