Couldn’t find it in the AUR, but the LD-PRELOAD fixed that error… It isn’t the only library though (and afaik LD_PRELOAD is only for a single library):
[surillya@americansuri linux-build-5]$ LD_PRELOAD=/home/surillya/Downloads/linux-build-5/thirdparty/KTX-Software/libktx.so.4
[surillya@americansuri linux-build-5]$ ./launch.sh
./Runtime: error while loading shared libraries: libopenxr_loader.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
I also tried LD_LIBRARY_PATH, but that ain’t workin’ neither sadly.
Maybe with openxr-loader-git through AUR?
Neither my friend nor I had the issue, so there might be a *few* missing libraries :/
FYI LD_PRELOAD="libA libB" should work for multiple libraries (or using a semicolon).
Just in case I looked for .so files inside my engine build folder, here's the list:
slang/slang-2025.10.4-linux-x86_64/lib/libgfx.so KTX-Software/libktx.so KTX-Software/libktx.so.4 KTX-Software/libktx.so.4.1.0 OpenXR-SDK-Source/src/loader/libopenxr_loader.so OpenXR-SDK-Source/src/loader/libopenxr_loader.so.1 OpenXR-SDK-Source/src/loader/libopenxr_loader.so.1.0.32.1 slang/slang-2025.10.4-linux-x86_64/lib/libslang.so slang/slang-2025.10.4-linux-x86_64/lib/libslang-glslang.so slang/slang-2025.10.4-linux-x86_64/lib/libslang-glsl-module.so slang/slang-2025.10.4-linux-x86_64/lib/libslang-llvm.so slang/slang-2025.10.4-linux-x86_64/lib/libslang-rt.soEverything related to slang should not be necessary to run the game.
I want to already thank you for your patience!
I thank you for your will to fix it! So, the issue is even more complicated. I found the openxr package on the AUR, but it doesn’t install for some mysterious issues
-> Failed to install the following packages. Manual intervention is required:
openxr-loader-git - exit status 5
I did do the LD_PRELOAD with multiple files - which works with semicolons (I forgot how environment variables worked smh), thing is… I assumed it’s also in the thirdparty folder, so this is what happened:
[surillya@americansuri linux-build-5]$ ./launch.sh
ERROR: ld.so: object '/home/surillya/Downloads/linux-build-5/thirdparty/KTX-Software/libktx.so.4;/home/surillya/Downloads/linux-build-5/thirdparty/OpenXR-SDK-Source/src/loader/libopenxr_loader.so.1' from LD_PRELOAD cannot be preloaded (cannot open shared object file): ignored.
./Runtime: error while loading shared libraries: libktx.so.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
So, I got the same libktx error again, and another (I have honestly no idea what it means with “shared object file”), but so I looked for the file in the first place, but it doesn’t seem to be shipped :o
So maybe - I either need that file / those files, and / or LD_PRELOAD has an issue with multiple libraries or something - actually, I just tried again, using space instead of semicolon, and the issue changed again, I think now it just means that libopenxr_loader.so.1 is missing:
[surillya@americansuri linux-build-5]$ LD_PRELOAD="/home/surillya/Downloads/linux-build-5/thirdparty/KTX-Software/libktx.so.4 /home/surillya/Downloads/linux-build-5/thirdparty/OpenXR-SDK-Source/src/loader/libopenxr_loader.so.1"
[surillya@americansuri linux-build-5]$ ./launch.sh
ERROR: ld.so: object '/home/surillya/Downloads/linux-build-5/thirdparty/OpenXR-SDK-Source/src/loader/libopenxr_loader.so.1' from LD_PRELOAD cannot be preloaded (cannot open shared object file): ignored.
./Runtime: error while loading shared libraries: libopenxr_loader.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
At least that’s what I think it is… Don’t take my word for it though.
Hmm… I tired with no compatibility tools selected, SLR 3.0, SLR 1.0, Proton Hotfix and Proton 9.0-4, but nothing - the button just returns to “Play” again in a short time, and my PC is not crying, not showing any sign of anything happening. This is the setting:
So that doesn’t seem to work? What Proton do you use? I also tried both soda and syswine in bottles, not giving anything at all, so I tried the wine shell, giving me this:
Z:\home\surillya\.local\share\bottles\bottles\windont>Z:\home\surillya\Downloads
\windows-build-4\Launch.bat
Z:\home\surillya\.local\share\bottles\bottles\windont>"./RelWithDebInfo/Runtime.
exe" game_data/LoopGMTKJam.json
Can't recognize '"./RelWithDebInfo/Runtime.exe" game_data/LoopGMTKJam.json' as a
n internal or external command, or batch script.
Yeaaah… I don’t know if you want to continue error fixing, or just say it doesn’t work for me… But maybe you have some special proton version?

I tried with Proton Experimental.
If it still does not work for you, I don't know what else to try...
Naww, I tried again with syswine, but yeah, this is not gonna work. No mesh-shader (am on vacation, and don’t have my real PC here):
Device Intel(R) Iris(R) Xe Graphics (RPL-P) is missing following extensions:
VK_EXT_mesh_shader
Z:\home\surillya\Downloads\windows-build-4>
Thanks though. But I sadly can’t try it, apologies.
It's possible your GPU is too old. Aruseus has posted that their GTX1060 does not support mesh shaders, which are another requirement for the engine (even if the game does not use them). I've updated the game description to mention mesh shaders, but sadly I don't think you will be able to play the game :c
