Tinker Steps:Custom Proton: GE-Proton9-27

Overall (online):Excellent
I used GE-Proton instead of Proton Experimental because I saw a testing image when starting the game (broken cutscenes/videos?).
I'm not sure if the gameplay itself is affected too, but GE-Proton fixed it at the start and I didn't experience any other issues

Tinker Steps:Launcher: heroic, Custom Proton: GE-Proton8-24
Played the epic game store version with heroic. I only had one bug in the level "Defuse the Bomb". The video on the screen did not play. I had to watch a video walkthrough here to know what was being shown.

Game seems to work but the first one or two cutscenes don't play properly but it works and is playable and you can understand the story.
Tinker Steps:Custom Proton: GE-Proton7-4
Graphics:Other
Cutscenes didn't play
Significant Bugs:
Without GE the game refuses to properly launch (only displays black screen at start). With GE you see a missing cutscene texture and can skip it with escape
