Game defaults to a windowed mode, that will trigger FSR scaling if enabled. This makes the pixel art look blurred. Recommend switching to fullscreen in options.
Steam Deck controls did not work on inital launch. Problem was fixed by plugging in a keyboard, navigating to the game options, selecting controller and mapping the buttons. Takes a couple seconds and your controller will work on launch from that point onward.
Community layouts didn't work
Worked perfectly
I completely mastered the game under Linux. Not really a resource hog of a game, so you'd expect it to work flawlessly, which it did.
The game has to be run using Wine D3D instead of DXVK, otherwise the game goes down to ~30 FPS and gets too slow, almost unplayable.
PROTON_USE_WINED3D=1 %command%
Game runs very slow on DXVK, everything looks fine on Wine D3D.
Runs well out of the box
Change the screen size before you change to fullscreen and not the other way around or it will crash.
Game runs well, Steam controller integration is not the best but playable.
Steam controller wasn't detected unless powered on before the game started. Occasionally the attack button would trigger the main menu to open.
You can't attack because the game controls are not mapped correctly :( The only way is to play with a keyboard.
It starts in windowed mode, then I change it to fullscreen, and when trying to go back to windowed the game would became stuck.
I couldn't close it and it was totally unresponsive although the music was still playing. The only way I could close it was with a kill -9.
This is on an XBox controller. The attack button X would open the menu for the game, so actually, attacking was impossible.
copy 32bit d3dcompiler_43.dll and d3dx9_43.dll to game exe folder
The game doesn't suffer at *all.* Plays exactly how it would on a Windows machine.
Some minor music glitches are present, but these glitches are also present in the Windows version. Simply reload the level if the music for any stage doesn't play.
Played through the whole thing, no issues at all.
Unknown(2+ hours with Proton)Runs perfectly even on this ancient hardware. Only tweak is using compton as compositor for better vsync, as slight stuttering occurs when using xfwm.

Only encountered a singe error and that is that the game doesn't properly exit while in full screen. You'll have to stop the proton process yourself. Can be "fixed" by setting the game to windowed before exiting.
Unknown(< 1 hour with Proton)Game runs fine on Xubuntu 18.04.2 LTS.
Unknown(< 1 hour with Proton)UnknownBy default it launches with a black screen, the game works but you can't see anything. Adding any Environment Variables caused the game to not launch.

No issue whatsoever.
Xbox one controller used to work out of the box. Functionality can easily be simulated using steams controller configuration. After that. Finished games with no issue
UnknownDoesn't work with XBox360 controller. Up is always pressed. Audio is choppy

Works fine with PS3 controller. Audio is choppy but not terribly.
UnknownPerformance is good, solid 60fps, no lag, jitter or anything like that. Played for 15 minutes and died at the first boss. Didn't test controller but I suppose there shouldn't be anything wrong with that either.
