Steps to reproduce installation bug:
- Install game trough Steam.
- Press play.
- Steps 1 and 2 of the installation process will proceed as normal.
- Installation hangs on step 3 of installation process: it opens a new window, with a black screen, titled: Wine Command Prompt.
- Close the Wine Command Prompt screen.
- Game loads anyway into main menu.
Xbox 360 controller support:
| Function | Works | Remarks |
|---|---|---|
| Controller input | N/A | The game has no controller input support at all. |
Summary of findings:
The installation bug doesn't affect playing the game, just closing the Wine Command Prompt is enough to "fix it".
Game works fine, though there is a problem with online connectivity:
- The link to which the game points in its news section is no longer valid.
- The Global and Friend leaderboards give a network timeout.
- Probably the servers are shut down, on account of it being a old game.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the Steam installation steps with Proton 3.7-6 Beta and inspect the linked proton log. Focus on the step 3 Wine Command Prompt hang and verify whether installation completes without requiring that window to be closed; the report also notes separate News and online leaderboard connectivity failures.
