ProtonDB | Game Details for Noita

Works nicely! Great Game.

Tinker Steps:Launcher: Heroic Games Launcher, Switch to experimental, Set launch options

env -u SDL_VIDEODRIVER %command%

Using wayland and had to unset SDL_VIDEODRIVER, seems like a common thing with Proton. Other games also need it.

Had to fix wierd ghosting caused by VRR

Tinker Steps:Other

Graphics:Minor Artifacts

Variable Refresh Rate (VRR)/Adaptive Sync caused a weird bright ghosting when moving, especially near high-contrast edges. This is my KDE Window Rule for disabling VRR for Noita, which solved the issue for me: https://gist.github.com/laundmo/c8f50886b6815c1391495ed12f34aea4

It should not be needed if your monitor doesn't have VRR, or maybe just a better implementation than mine. It's also not needed for windowed mode at resolutions below the screen resolution.

Performance:Slight Performance Problems

Occasional slowdown that passes after 2 or 3 seconds. Happens rarely. Uknown cause. Possibly related to off screen chaos somewhere on the map.

I use Proton Experimental as the default selection for my entire Steam Library. Game works immediately after installation. There is, on very rare occasions, some random slowdown for 2 or 3 seconds, may not be hardware related, possibly due to offscreen chaos somewhere on the map.
