The font is a different size and selecting a song may be difficult.
The font is shorter and wider and misaligns with the mouse hitboxes when selecting a song. Selecting songs in a long list of files may prove difficult. Sometimes the text goes off the screen.
Aside from the mismatched fonts, it is otherwise playable.
Installed the Audiosurf 2 community patch found on https://audiosurf2.info
Works fine
The game doesn't like alt-tabbing but I'd wager a guess that's also the case on Windows.
Nvidia drivers broken, will not render terrain
Nvidia's Linux drivers do not support the mesh shaders that FF7 Rebirth uses atm. Until they fix their drivers only AMD cards seem to work.
Stuttering
At this time if you are using an Nvidia card you will need to build and install this mod or else you will see a lot of missing textures: https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Proton/issues/8408#issuecomment-2657340142
When I first installed it I got some heavy graphical artifacts that covered the screen and made the game unplayable. They automagically left after updating my graphics driver. Since then the game has played well aside from stuttering and other minor performance issues.
Works as expected
Any issues I found with the game were bugs that also happened on Windows. Nothing serious, just bad keyboard support for Claude's flippers and weird scaling when fullscreen on particularly large screens.
Very unstable
The Linux version does not come packaged with the necessary libraries to launch. It is an older build that Small World stopped supporting and abandoned. The game launches with Proton Hotfix and runs about as well as it does on Windows which is to say, it does not run well at all. Ever since the Spider's Web DLC released the game crashes frequently to the point I consider unplayable.

Followed the steps on OutFrost's post: https://www.protondb.com/app/244850#kLKRH8q32N
I used protontricks instead of winetricks as it did not seem necessary to me. Replacing xaudio2_9.dll fixes the audio issues and Proton GE fixed most of the stability issues. The game felt unplayable without these fixes but with them I have been able to play singeplayer and dedicated multiplayer worlds in Space Engineers. Just don't go crazy with the workshop mods, not all of them seem to play well on Linux. Space Engineers does not behave well with Alt-tabbing.
Runs a little slow, but works.
The game runs slower on Linux than on Windows, expect a slight framerate drop.
Use Proton. The native Linux build has several outstanding issues like always launching on a secondary monitor and being unable to connect to online games. Proton worked flawlessly.
Major slowdowns on Native, Proton works great.
The native version didn't seem to use my GPU much which caused major slowdowns, especially when zooming in. The Proton version ran fine and used my GPU correctly.
