Has anyone had any luck with Dodi repacks on Linux ? (lemmings.world)

So I downloaded Dodi's Sekiro repack and installed it through bottles, but the game does not launch.

Also tried adding the exe file to Heroic, gave me the same result as Bottles.

On windows, I remember this exact repack working perfectly. So maybe they way I installed it in Linux is causing the issue ?

Here's what I do with Dodi an FitGirl repacks:

  1. Install wine, its dependencies, and Steam. I use Fedora, so I installed Steam using rpm-fusion's non-free repository.
  2. Double click on the installer and install the game normally in a folder.
  3. Launch Steam and add a non-steam game. I select the .exe file used to launch the game.
  4. Right-click on the non-steam game and change its preferences to use Proton.
  5. Launch the game.

I have a special bottles profile just for installing games to my games drive.

I am voting for bottles too so simple to use and they work great!
