Description

Compatibility Report

  • Name of the game with compatibility issues: Cookie Clicker
  • Steam AppID of the game: 1454400

System Information

  • GPU: RX6800
  • Driver/LLVM version: mesa 21.1.7
  • Kernel version: 5.13
  • Proton version: 6.3-6

I confirm:

  • that I haven't found an existing compatibility report for this game.
  • that I have checked whether there are updates for my system available.

Symptoms

  • Game crashes on startup without launch parameters (all default). (Quite a few reports on protondb confirm this behavior, interesting: a handfull of people can run the the game as is, possible DE specific?).
    • The game reliably starts up and works when called with PROTON_LOG=1 %command%.
  • The game audio crackles from time to time.
  • The framerate is lower than expected for such a simple Electron app.

Research direction
