Our mainly linux metroidvania (sometimes compiled for windows too) have a new features trailer :^)
Android Emulation / Playstation App
I have recently switched to Linux blah blah blah you all know the stick.
On my Windows machine I had BlueStacks installed so I could connect to my friends PlayStation Party via the PlayStation App (I know PlayStation has a Discord feature, but you cant stream so this was, probably, the only option)
After switching I tried to search for an Emulator similar to BlueStacks and found 2 options: Waydroid and Genymotion.
Waydroid seemed fine at first but I couldn't connect to the Internet with it so I searched a bit online and found this thread https://www.reddit.com/r/waydroid/comments/z57rx7/help_i_cant_connect_waydroid_to_internet/
It didn’t work so I searched for a different Emulator an found Genymotion
Genymotion seemed fine at first but I learned that none of the free devices available had the capabilities to install the Playstation App so I am at a standstill.
To come to my Question now, does anybody here know of a way I could connect to my friends Playstation Party?
Thanks in advance for any help!

Greenlight on Arch Linux
I have Game Pass Ultimate for my Xbox and ROG Ally but wanted to see if there was anything I can do on my PC which runs Arch. It looks like there are three greenlight AUR apps. Any version recommended over the others? looks like they're all based of the same github project.

What are the best mmo mice for Linux?
I'm not impressed with my Razer Naga, and since switching to Linux, I have discovered that the software to remap the buttons is not compatible with Linux.
I saw some other posts asking this same question, but they're all pretty old, and I would prefer the latest recommendations.

I need help programming with Steamworks API and Rust
I'm sorry if this is not the appropriate place to ask, but if you know where it would be please tell me!
I've been trying recently to use the Steamworks API for my app, but everytime I do, the app crashes after a few seconds. I've made a minimalistic reproduction repository here:
https://github.com/PaulCombal/steamworks-linux-poc
I have no clue whether it's a problem with the API itself, or the way I use it. Either way, if you are a Rust or Steam guru, or know one, let me know if you're interested in taking the challenge!

Last epoch crashes during launch
Hi everyone, I've switched to Linux Mint recently and I can't get Last Epoch to launch. I've tried different Proton versions but it crashes everytime on the first loading screen. Anyone experienced the same and figured out a way to fix it ? Thanks

Some games won't allow mouse to control camera

I am uncertain what "fixed" this for me in Schedule I (haven't tested FS25 yet).
Using ProtonTricks I opened the Schedule I Proton Wine Prefix and Changed its settings.
grabfullscreen=y
graphics=x11
mwo=disabled
win11
I will be going backwards to see if I can identify specifically which setting resolved my issue. My gut tells me grabfullscreen=y or graphics=x11.

I have experienced this issue in Farming Simulator 25 and Schedule I. The issue specifically is that once you load into the game and are at a point where you should be able to control the camera with the mouse and look around, the camera will slightly shift in whatever direction you try and then snap back to an origin point.
I've tried numerous Proton versions and launch options. I did fight to get gamescope installed to my system (it isn't easy to do on Pop for some absurd reason) and that doesn't resolve the issue. In FS25 I was able to look about, but the cursor wasn't captured to the window and thus made the game difficult to play.
My solution for FS25 was to play with controller for now. Schedule I does not support controller. Another Pop_OS user reported that the game worked "out of the box without modifications" on ProtonDB, but there is no way for me to chat with this person. I call BS on that claim as it absolutely doesn't work out of the box and I would love to know what they've done to get the game to work.
If anyone else has experienced this issue and found a resolution, I would appreciate if you could share. I do already have the following launch commands in as this seems to make most, if not all Unity games behave better if it is used.
LD_PRELOAD="" gamemoderun %command%
I will be trying more troubleshooting, but I'm beginning to think that once this is experienced it is just a game that cannot be played in Pop_OS Epoch 6 COSMIC.
Thank you in advance to anyone who may be able to assist.
