@0x4d6165 terrible answer but: the niri discord has a channel specifically for games troubleshooting

@0x4d6165 Is it refusing to run them at all or is it some issue with the way they look/perform? I'm using Niri right now and it's being nice to me

@0x4d6165 for a lot of games, i need to run them under GameScope. but that’s mostly down to games windowing badly and would apply to most other compositors. i’ve never had a game that i can’t have a good experience in under niri (be that through gamescope, proton, xwayland-satellite, or rootful x11)

@0x4d6165 can confirm at the very least balatro runs fine under gamescope in niri.
