Works great here (Solus Linux), no issues at all. Very cool game so far.

Edit: thanks for the Seajeff hint... pretty cool songs as well!

Easier/cheaper/more realistic to make a game look "good" with these aesthetics to a niche of players than trying to make it full 3D and having it end up looking "bad" to everyone. Game Developer 101.

Anyone has a tip how to configure controllers with this? The popup window is so large on my Laptop (1920x1080 resolution) that I can't actually reach the probably existing "apply/save" buttons at the lower right :(

Anyone else having trouble getting it to run? I had it working previously, but now that I tried it again it just fails to launch (on Solus Linux with the latest Nvidia beta drivers).

Not quite as easy to get into as Luftrausers, but pretty good never the less. Colors are cool, m'key?

With a HTC Vive it might work. Other VR games running through Proton (which has a special VR pass through mode) work apparently. I am seriously considering to get a Vive now because of that.

Wine 3.15 is out, includes fixes for League of Legends, World of Warcraft and more

Quoting: cRaZy-bisCuiTSince they applied patches that differ from mainline wine it's a fork.
Sure, strictly speaking Ubuntu is also a Debian fork.
But I think if you keep in sync with upstream and just apply a set of patches, with no intention to diverge the code-base to become incompatible, then fork isn't really the right term I guess.

Is Proton really a fork?
Isn't it more of a downstream repackaging like Ubuntu is to Debian?
Or is it more comparable to WINE Vs. WINE-Staging?

Did you actually try it? On my solus linux desktop with an older nvidia driver the tomb raider launcher also complains about an unsupported driver, but if you continue anyways it works great.
