Description:
Squirrel with a Gun runs through Proton, using the VKD3D since it uses DX12 on Windows
Performance is not great on Linux though, dispite MangoHud didn't work on this game, I did use steam overlay FPS counter to compare with the Windows version.
Results are pretty bad for Linux with 15% to 20% worse framerate than Windows, the only positive note, is that it's stable and doesn't have noticable frametime issues, but the framerate difference is quite big.
Regarding stability and visual differences, perfect on both, no crashes, everything works as it should.
