Issues fixed

Game does not launch

Add a working libEGL.dll file to the game folder[1]
  1. Download this archive.
  2. Right click on game in Steam library.
  3. Click Local Files.
  4. Click Browse local files...
  5. Extract the downloaded archive to the folder that opens.

Notes

Creating an empty text file and renaming it to libEGL.dll also seems to work, although it will cause an error message on launch.

Low FPS in-game

Videos play at full frame rate, but gameplay (including menus) runs very slowly.
Disable Steam Overlay[citation needed]
  1. Right click on game in Steam library.
  2. Click Properties.
  3. Uncheck Enable the Steam overlay while in-game, then press Close.

Notes

  1. 1.0 1.1 File/folder structure within this directory reflects the path(s) listed for Windows and/or Steam game data (use Wine regedit to access Windows registry paths). Games with Steam Cloud support may store data in ~/.steam/steam/userdata/<user-id>/613830/ in addition to or instead of this directory. The app ID (613830) may differ in some cases. Treat backslashes as forward slashes. See the glossary page for details.
