It does seem to support Linux to some degree, but appears to be targeted heavily towards emulation hobbyists. I was mostly going to play Steam games like Major Mayhem, and the info regarding whether this would work on Steam over Proton is rather sparse.
So the question is, has anyone tried it, and gotten it to work on Linux? Do games need to be aware of the lightgun like a special controller or can it emulate mouse input?

Sounds like it runs as either a mouse or as a joystick:
The example used Mame on the Deck so I'm not sure how well it works with regular Steam games. Guess it doesn't hurt to ask?
