Pretty sure most of you will drop a “Well, duh – that’s pretty much a NES game”… which is true, yes. A NES game with plenty of layers (FEX > x86_64 to arm > wine > Directx 12, if my memory serves me right) and the fact that vulkan support is “meh”, but still very limited (What you are seeing is pure opengl) makes this a very significant accomplishment. This is not the only game that can run on it – even Metro 2033 (linux native version) can run quite in an acceptable framerate (10’ish FPS, worst case scenario), and the fact that this is run on a device that barely sips the 10 watts mark… makes this feel very “I’m in the future”-kind of thing.
Oh, and the ingame res is odd like that due to the wacky panfrost support (its gpu “drivers”) but its 100% fine when I remove all these terminal windows.
It does. I’ve bought the Windows version regardless so I can test the game on different machines.
-EDIT- …and just came to mind that some Linux games does not run at all on the opi 5 due to poor vulkan support – which might be the case of this game as well.
t. Bought the TMNT linux native brawler game (forgot its name now – TMNT something something shredder) and the game refused to run. Then, bought the windows version right after and the game ran smoothly.
