tldr: non-steam game runs on steam deck but doesn't run on desktop, is there any way to like trick it into thinking I'm on a steam deck and if not is there anything else I can try?
Hi I'm trying to run Infinity Nikki on my machine, but in the launcher the install button just says "Game Update" and when pressed it shows progress at 0% for awhile then just goes back to "Game Update"
Looking online for a solution I found that pretty much everyone trying on linux is running into this issue, usually given that the game has kernel level anticheat I'd just give up on getting it to run but the weird thing is that it seemingly can be installed and ran on steam deck just fine.
I saw a game named "Forspoken" had a similar issue which got fixed by adding a launch option in steam, this did not work in this game (I'm running the launcher through steam). Is there any other way I can get it to work like it does on steam deck? or do I just need to dual-boot for now?
Happy to post any logs requested (sorry I don't really know which logs would be relevant here)
Mit der Steam-Veröffentlichung von Infinity Nikki war ich aufgeregt über die Möglichkeit, das Spiel endlich zum ersten Mal zu spielen. Aber leider war es wegen des ACE Anti-Cheat nicht möglich.
Gibt es einen Ort, an dem ich den Entwicklern/dem Unternehmen Feedback zur Whitelisting von Linux-Desktops geben kann? Kannst du mir sagen, wo?
So I've been considering switching to Linux for quite a while now and finally I got a new laptop and thought I'd make the jump. The only thing keeping me hesitant is Infinty Nikki, since it's basically the only game I actually play regularly right now.
I've seen that someone managed to make it work in a post in this subreddit (will link it below), but it was made around 5 months ago and I was worried the new updates might have impacted it.
Could anyone tell me if the game is working? Maybe if there are any problems I should expect?

Hey y’all!
So I noticed a few sparse threads about people trying to get Nikki up and running on Linux (apparently it does work on Steam Deck but not Bazzite or any other Linux distro). I’m hoping we might all work together and post here the things we’ve tried that haven’t worked? That way maybe we can figure it out together!
I have the option of playing on my iPhone but it doesn’t do the game justice. I wanna see my adorable outfits in HD 😇
Thus far I think the most we’ve been able to do is get the launcher installed and then we get the dreaded “Update Game” button that doesn’t work.
Thoughts? Ideas? Let me know 😇❤️
I would like to know if anyone has played it on Linux and how the game runs. All my games run on Linux, and I don’t want to switch to Windows just to play it.
