Atomic Society recently entered Early Access on Steam and the developer Far Road Games said it will be coming to Linux.
What's interesting, is that even though users have been talking about playing it using Steam Play, the developer made it clear they're working on a native Linux build. On the Steam forum, they said "Yep, official support is planned as soon as we're a bit more on top of the content with the Windows version (being a tiny team we prefer to limit our debugging focus to 1 version at a time).".
Really good to see that, sounds like an interesting game.
Direct Link
Sounds like it has a bunch of interesting features already, include dealing with crime, judging social issues in your society, fight against outsiders, custom difficulty settings and so on.
From the early reviews, it seems to show quite a lot of promise while having a fair amount of rough edges. That's fair enough though, this is what Early Access is for.
Find out more and wishlist on Steam. Wouldn't hurt to let the developer know in the Steam forum post if you will actually pick up a copy when the Linux version is live.
Hat tip to Tiedemann.
The game runs fine through proton with the exception that the player character and NPCs are not visible on screen. I tried on both manjaro and mint without success so I am glad we are getting an official port.

Have you tried with the launch options: "PROTON_NO_D3D11=1 %command%", as mentioned in the Steam Forum Post linked in the article? Apparently that's meant to deal with that specific problem - and that's on Ubuntu, so reasonable chance of it being the same in Mint at least.
