Could not get game to load on screen at all
d3dcompiler_47
Attempted to use multiple versions of Proton available in Steam. All the way down to 5.13-6 with no success. Also tried using protontricks to install d3dcompiler_47, recommended by dev years ago, with no success.

Was working, now it doesn't.
Tried and failed with Proton 8.0-5, 9.0-3, experimental, GE 8-24.
Error message:
Cannot launch the game.
DirectX 10 cannot be initialized.
...
Additional details:
- A couple of other games run without issue in Proton on the same machine.
- Launched and tested a few months ago when first purchased. Was going to actually play today and it failed to launch. Produced the same DirectX 10 error message with four different Proton versions.
- Did not use any launch options. Don't know where to start. No one seems to be using any before.
- Attempted to install and run Protontricks but that failled to run correctly on Mint 21.

Only played single player, but that works flawlessly
Install, hit play - no extra steps needed
Didin't start

After initial logo screen, game presents a fatal error.
Tried Proton GE as well.
"Steam Client Error. Please quite the game, restart the Steam client and launch the game again."
This is for the demo. I tried regular Steam Proton and Proton GE. Same result.

Устанавливается, запускается, но не показывается
(Demo Vesrion) установилась, запустилась, но окно игры так и не появилось.
Found no issues

Steam Client Error - Please quit the game, restart the Steam client and launch the game again.
I tried all the proton version available in the compatability section in steam - and this was as far as I got. Earlier versions didn't seem to start at all.
Note - this is for the demo.
Game stops at splash screen, never gets any farther.

Demo: Always receive a Steam Client Error
The game (Demo version) always reports "Steam Client Error. Please quite the game, restart the Steam client and launch the game again". Restarting steam or rebooting the system did not change the behaviour. Tried with Proton 6.3-7, 5.13-6 and experimental. No tinkering done.
All ok!
The problem with quitting the game (does not exit) You just need to press "close" in the client steam. The image seemed not a little more blurry when compared to the experience of playing on windows. But this is very subjective and not at all accurate
Working perfect, sometimes get some short freezes, but I think it's just a kde issues
Works
Game works out of the box with DXVK

Doesn't work with any version of Proton on Steam, nor GloriousEggroll Proton 4.21/5.21/6.1.
The protontricks the dev suggested in November for Proton 5.13-2 are supposedly not needed anymore, but the currently available 5.13 (5.13-5) doesn't launch either way. 5.13 and most other versions crash attempting to load mono, before even getting to the splash screen. Proton Experimental (currently based on wine-5.13-1285) gets to the main menu but can't get into a game.
Works out of the box.
Runs very well out of the box.
Works very well and stable for almost 2 hours.
One time on leaving the game, steam big picture was "stretched" and I had to restart steam. I could not reproduce.
Works fine out of the box without any extra steps
Developers went the extra mile to get Proton working flawlessly. Great work!
Just select Proton 5.13-2 in the game properties and launch it.
They even have a docker image for the dedicated server!
I'm the developer of this game and we want to ensure perfect Proton compatibility! Major improvements were made recently.

Tried dotnet beta and protontricks as suggested by others - freezes at splashscreen.
Only it crash when I quit to desktop
I used the custom setup recommended in other reports, but Proton 5.09 didn't work, I achieved to play using Proton 4.11-13

Followed others instructions, but still no dice.
Selected Beta and used ProtonTricks to install recommended packages.
As said already : + select "netframework472" in Steam Beta tab. + protontricks 829590 dotnet471 -q + protontricks 829590 d3dcompiler_47 -q
In den Steam Einstellungen [netframework472] wählen. Mit den Protontricks funktioniert es dann Einwandfrei
protontricks 829590 dotnet471 -q protontricks 829590 d3dcompiler_47 -q
To make it work, you need to select the branch "netframework472" in the game properties in Steam Client, "BETAS" tab. As already said, you also need to install donet471 and d3dcompiler_47 with winetricks or protontricks.
protontricks 829590 dotnet471 -q
protontricks 829590 d3dcompiler_47 -q

OK

Game starts up but sits on the splash screen
I tried all the latest versions of proton, as well as Proton 5.6 GE and none of them made it any further than the splash screen. Hopefully they support native Linux soon.

Cannot get past initial logo screen, even after a lots of fiddling
At best it only starts to the initial logo screen, then gets stuck. Tried with GE, Proton and default WINE, installed the DotNet stuff (you almost know you're into trouble if something insists on DotNet) and various Proton Flags. With "PROTON_USE_WINED3D=1" at least it starts and shows the logo screen, without it will not even start.

Sometimes the game either freezes or crashes to desktop, but not really a showblocker since the game saves constantly and no progress gets lost.

1. .NET 4.7.1
Install .Net 4.7.1. Either use winetricks in the games prefix or use protontricks via "protontricks 829590 dotnet471 -q"
Note: The installation takes quite some time, because all .NET versions from 4.0 up to 4.7.1 need to be installed. You also need to continue and finish the installations in the pop-up windows manually.
2. D3DCompiler47
Install D3DCompiler 47. Either use winetricks in the games prefix or use protontricks via "protontricks 829590 d3dcompiler_47"
3. Have fun!
If everything worked the game now should start into the language selection screen.
