Patch: 0.0.23

The "Patch"-field is for when we have a patch on Phabricator (code.wildfiregames.com). :)

Hey, do you happen to use Wayland? We currently do not support it. Although we use the SDL so you might be able to pass some flags.

Wayland support has been added in the dev version.

Oh, sorry for the patch thing. I use Xorg, not Wayland. The game worked fine, it was the latest update that caused the problem.

I downloaded the Snap version of the game (it is still on version 0.0.22-4) and it runs fine. Should I try running the flatpak command with some flags? If so, which?

Sorry I just remembered about this ticket :/

Can you attach system_info.txt and userreport_hwdetect.txt? Can you try the snap again? You might want to test the bleeding edge version too to see if it's fixed in the upcoming version.
