Hello @linus-jansson, Forager has a native Linux variant. Are you sure that your testing was with Proton? Please go to the game in Steam's library view and click the ⓘ symbol on the right side and see if the additional information includes a like that reads something like Runs on this computer via Steam Play. Proton # selected by you for this title. If that line does not show, then Proton is not involved and this feedback should be directly mentioned to the game's dev(s).

Seems like it ran with the native version.. Tried forcing it to launch with proton eperimental and it worked out of the box.
Thank you!
