I used to think this game is unplayable on Linux OS, but now I found a fix! Only two requirements - launch parameter and Proton GE (latest version; not sure about other versions but it may work). Here's the launch parameter: PROTON_USE_WINED3D=1 %command% -vanillaGFX

UPDATE: (05/26)
The game works on Linux OS, but not on Steam Deck. No idea what to do with this issue as there is no easy fix. Shame, really, because I wanted to grind out the achievements on the go.

I tried to get this game work on Linux desktop PC, but it's not working. Odd how this game worked on Steam Deck. Perhaps it's CPU or GPU related?

UPDATE: (5/24)
I found a fix for the Linux desktop PC. I had to add one launch option: PROTON_USE_WINED3D=1 %command% -vanillaGFX

🪙 Reboot mode - 1CC - Easy difficulty

I'm going after normal 1CC next both on Reboot and Retro modes.

Returned

I used to play this game on Windows 10 six years ago. Then, I quit playing this game. But! I decided to return for proper clear, plus getting all of the achievements is way easier now.

🎆 Game beaten!
Difficulty: Easy
Time Taken: 3 hours
💀 Deaths: 83

I finally beaten the game! Never beaten it on normal, because of unbalanced difficulty and BS stage design choices. Not to mention, stage 7 takes luck at the beginning due to turrets attack whatever it wants, plus you can't bullet seal it. Like WTF.

I have yet to 1CC on easy.

🎆 Arcade mode beaten!
Difficulty: Normal
(continue used)

A rather lengthy arcade mode that takes 45 to 50 minutes to clear compare to other arcade games which average between 20 to 30 minutes.

Unfortunately, the game saves your current score after continuing rather than resetting to zero. This resulted an unsatisfied clear, plus the online leaderboards lets your score submitted despite continuing.

I'll try another 1CC attempt later. Oh, and if you want to earn the achievement asking you to 'beat the arcade mode 30 times', then it takes 25 hours (1,500 minutes) to grind it. Yikes! Although you can finish it on any difficulty.

Still, I had fun playing that mode. I was just being dumb on certain stage where I either didn't pay attention or took an unnecessary hit.

And what's weird is, the staff credits has an ending theme song! Not to mention, you can move your character and fire the harpoon to latch on portrait, and hold it to reveal the credits.

What a rip-off this game is. Same game but with two new stages and re-balanced game difficulty. This is much easier than the first installment.
