I wouldn't want anyone to go through that kind of pain only to try the game and realize it works much better on Windows.
When launched, the game cannot enter exclusive windowed mode and crashes with an error. I had to add -screen-fullscreen 1 in the launch options.
FPS is 50% lower compared to Windows
I'm completely confused, the game in Steam+Proton-GE works 50% worse than in Windows, WHY?? I made all possible settings and the rest of the games work excellent for me, but it is Raft that has problems. On Windows I can make good graphics settings and the extension 1600x900 and get 40-60 fps. On Linux, I have to set the extension to 1280x720, disable the shadow settings and ambient occlusion, and I get 2-3 fps, I have to restart the game and get a pitiful 35 fps with freezes. Pythagoras was turning over in his grave trying to understand the dependencies and everything else, but he couldn’t find an answer why exactly Raft works so much worse in Linux than in Windows.
I personally have one guess, this is the Unity game engine, for example the game Outward has similar problems and it is also made on Unity..
