Description

It freezes when I quit the game at startscreen, it'll show a force close message that you have to alttab to see for a split second but can't click and mouse control doesn't work while it's in this state for the rest of the desktop so I had to force close app in task manager.

Almost felt like a native game until I was done playing.

Research direction

Start by reviewing steam-489370.log and the linked gist, then reproduce the Proton 3.7-5 failure when quitting the game at the start screen. Trace the force-close state and desktop mouse/input lockup from the available Proton code paths. Done means quitting no longer freezes the desktop or requires terminating the app through the task manager.
