The standard way, the game does start using Steam, shows "Fatal error" when launched. Crashes after a minute or two. A lot of people have that problem it seems.
Got the game running in Lutris by doing the following:
•Click "Manage runners" (in the 3 dots menu, upper right).
•Scroll down to "Wine Steam", install that.
•Click "Add game", in "Game info" type in the name, choose runner "Wine Steam".
•In the tab "Game Options" you add the ID "955050" (Game ID's can be found on their respective Steam store pages).
•Save these changes.
•Now you click "Run" and the game will install. You might need to log into steam over the popup window and then just follow the installation process.
•After that's done you should be able to play the game.
Game runs smoothly with no hiccups for me that way.
All of this, to play through the entire game in 35 minutes.
Game does run if you install it over Lutris, crashes with Steam Launcher.
Here's a relatively simple solution to get it to run:
- Open Lutris, click Manage runners (via the 3 dot menu, upper right).
- Scroll down to Wine Steam, install that.
- Click Add Game. In the Game info, type in the name & pick Wine Steam as your runner.
- In Game options, add the Application ID 1178830 (Game IDs can be found on their respective Steam Store pages).
- Click Save, then click Run.
- Lutris will now go through the installation process via the Wine Steam runner we chose. Wait for it to fully download, then click Stop (The game does not start automatically after download).
- Click Run again - and the game should start.
Of course you want to install DLC, if you have any:
- Purchase the DLC or enter the code you got.
- Now we notice Bright Memory infinite does not show in your installed list of Steam games, because we installed it over Lutris.
- Close all instances of Steam. Start Lutris, run the game. The Steam Wine runner we installed will launch a new session of steam, which then will recognize Bright Memory Infinite is installed and then add our DLC.
- If the Steam Overlay says "Finished downloading content", but it does not show up ingame, just restart the game and it will be there.
- Additional notes:
- The main menu background animation & the first cutscene might be stuttering / slow. This does not impact the performance of the game when you play. I played through the game twice and everything runs fine, except these two things. Nothing that would greatly bother though.
Game crashes when using the Implant upgrade menu for longer than 20 seconds.
Game does work, except for the implant upgrade store, frequent crashes when using it longer than 20 second.
Does work, if I apply upgrades one-by-one (Purchasing one, leaving store, game quicksaves - purchasing next upgrade, and so on...)
Game works fine, native or with Proton-GE.
Only issue is switching tabs, results in a blank screen. Solution so far is to force quit and restart.
Really not much to say about this one. Works fine native and with Proton-GE.
Movement is sluggish, playing it is kind of a drag. With better gameplay mechanics this could actually be good.
