Symptoms

The game's launcher appears briefly (though it looks very barren) and then a fullscreen window appears. It's, however, even more barren than the launcher -- in fact, it's completely black! That way it seems to stay for an indefinite time, I've never seen it make any progress. Looking at the process in htop seems to tell a similar story as it does not appear to be doing much.

Reproduction

1. Start Out There Somewhere.
2. Observe a black screen.

Start by reviewing the attached steam-263980.log and the compatibility report, then reproduce Out There Somewhere with Proton 3.16-8 beta using the listed steps. The work is done when the game launches past the fullscreen black screen; the issue does not identify a source file or existing test.
