The game is currently broken on Wayland, at least with NVIDIA drivers. Switch to X11 if you are affected.

This package requires the AppImage from the DRM-free version, obtainable through their website: https://worldofgoo2.com/#getitnow Just place it in the repo root as-is.

@bravely_beep This should now work on GNOME. For some reason, the XOrg icon is still shown on KDE Plasma.

When running the app under GNOME, the application menu switcher (SUPER+TAB) shows the wrong application name and icon.

The developers have added a '1.0.' prefix to the version number. Since pacman would treat that as a downgrade, I've opted to omit that prefix for now. If anyone has advice on how to handle a version format change like this, please do let me know.

This should have fuse2 added as a dependency, as this is needed for AppImages to run.

can confirm seems to work but I did have to add libcurl-gnutls ad a dependency. Please add it as a dependency.

It looks like it's only an issue on Wayland, perhaps only on NVIDIA as I can't test AMD or Intel.

Very interesting. I have the library installed and I get the warning but the game just opens and closes immediately. Perhaps this is a driver issue? I couldn't find anything unusual in the journal.

FWIW, I'm playing it right now on Arch, all seems to work so the first few levels in. All I had to do was install libcurl-gnutls as an extra dependency. It complains about the library not being versioned but otherwise seems to work well enough.
