Have you tried Alpha 1? Drop your specs and how it performed below, so that we can help others and so that I can work on tuning for the majority.
Please post:

Performance (ideally FPS, unless you don’t think FPS was a good metric for your experience)
Thanks so much!
So, I’ve now got two rigs.
R AM: 16GB DDR3L-1600
CPU: i5 4310U - 4th gen
GPU: Intel HD 4400 (The other limiter)
Performance: at all
RAM: 16GB
CPU: i7 - 8th gen
GPU: Nvidia RTX 1060
Looks better than on my Dell, but I’m not a hardliner for graphics…as the 1000 series GPU shows. 
I’m pretty impressed it plays on the Intel HD card! Thanks for the update
I haven’t actually tested with the Dell yet. That was more asperational tbh. Its on my list though. Is it a Debian-compatible program on Itch?
I’ve only tried one game on it so far, Hidden Folks. It did work. Though I think it’s requirements were something like, ‘computer turns on.’
I actually develop it on Debian 12, so that’s a definite yes.
It does require Vulkan, and it will run a bit smoother if you have any form of discrete video card.
It performs quite well on anything 1050 equiv or higher, such as a SteamDeck.
On intel cards… well, I guess you’ll have to let me know! 
How does one get Vulkan? I’m very new at this. 
You can check and see if it’s intalled already with vulkan-tools:
sudo apt -y install vulkan-tools
then:
vkcube
If it pops up with a spinning cube, you’re good to go. Otherwise, you’ll need to install the likely set:
sudo apt install mesa-vulkan-drivers mesa-vulkan-drivers:i386 libvulkan1 libvulkan1:i386
Then reboot. That should cover the majority. You might need the specifics for your videocard, depending on which machine you’re using.
Well, I tested it!
I get to the “Longplay Games” screen, then it goes black, then it crashes. So I take that as a “no” to it working with an Intel HD 4400.
Ah well. I’m not terribly surprised. Vulkan installed fine though.
I’ll have to track one down and see what I can do 
Thanks for testing it!
