Hi @MichaelJCole https://support.steampowered.com/kb_article.php?ref=8495-OKZC-0159 lists the active games in the beta ‐ Braid is not which is why you get that error.
It’s likely you’re missing a system library, if you run steam in a terminal and launch a game you should get that feedback. If its a problem with steam, please reopen.
Can I suggest that until the store is fixed, you make the "Linux" button on the top point to the article you mentioned?
Mike
@JohnDrinkwater - Thanks for the link. Steam, seriously? After buying these games specifically because they were listed in the Linux store, that's a really sloppy user experience and business. You can do better!
@Tele42 - You'll have more friends and maybe be less lonely if you're nicer.
Nothing extracted yet.
