Just tested 0.1.1 version on Linux Mint 22.1, the game runs fine.
Weird, that's close to (if not older than) what I'm running. I redownloaded the game and tried again, same result. Which DE are you using, nargacu? I'm using Cinnamon. I don't have my install media handy, so I don't recall the exact version. "uname -a" comes back with:
