That's what I imagined. My doubt is specific to wine running an application directly through wayland, where the app doesn't use CSD (which if I'm not mistake, it's a requirement for gnome wayland for example)
I think SDL devs were having problems with this too since they don't use any kind of native CSD.

Staging.
Games I tested:
Shadows - Awakening (doesnt even launch)
Elderborn (launches but no videos).
For now I've kept these games on a Wine 5.20 staging setup where they work perfectly.
