Note: i use LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib64/libSDL2-2.0.so.0 because of this bug https://github.com/ValveSoftware/steam-for-linux/issues/4954
Life is Strange uses incorrect pixel bit depth (lower than needed, about 16, i can not say for sure) instead of 24 (it seems this is the standard depth).
Screenshots:
Sway + SDL_VIDEODRIVER=wayland sway_wayland
Sway + SDL_VIDEODRIVER=x11 sway_x11

Probably sdl bug.

@kisak-valve can you transfer this issue to https://github.com/ValveSoftware/steam-runtime?

Hello @soredake, sorry, no. The issue described here is after forcefully replacing SDL with your system variant to expose a bug with an option that is otherwise unavailable. That is not a steam-runtime bug.

If you need to signal boost your issue further, then report it to upstream libSDL.

This happens with bundled sdl too, i reported it here https://github.com/libsdl-org/SDL/issues/4132

(In case this shows up in a Google search: we pushed a fix to SDL today, so this will Just Work as updated builds make their way around eventually.)
