If it is Ubuntu, it needs apparmor profile as described on Launchpad bug if Itch sandbox issue is still not solved or Ubuntu settings changed. But Itch has not this apparmor setting established yet.

Still –no-sandbox added to .local/share/applications and also to .config/autostart could also solve this,

or could use itch setting with not to use sandbox but this setting don’t work

or something not so standard required like firejail, but this seems strange…

if on Chomebook, something Google strange could happens…

Make a Remake or Make a different. Or Both. If you Use Environment, what to think about? If you want something else, like …, it is lawyer and establishment ideal world and in practice you need something different to fill your duty. If you need your success it depends on your project settings… And thats not easy… For inspiration look at https://itch.io/profile/leafo but thats also not the answer for your problem… But also there are games or applications when even Studios need their orig for current needs and knowledge and thats problem on current hw also…

Look at comparision on 3rd page Unity vs Godot and TOP Game Engines on itch.io to make a opinion progress.

Running automatically that desktop issue.

If butler daemon and communication with it is required for launching games, that should do some itch application(or maybe even itch if that does not complicate so much and maybe patches are welcome) and try not have another user launcher with their own program communicating with butler(in docs there is saying only on windows?) and trying to guess where data are located and maybe be blocked by some itch development issue or progress or even operating system policy.

And butler also requires some info about launching with previous info get from it to post info how to launch it, so some desktop shortcuts seems cumbersome as program in the middle to have launcher for itch so bye bye common sense present in operating system... But if itch decide how to have this functionality then may be more desktop experience be in and also itch application have be the only point of itch development and user in.

PWA apps are banned by Safari and Mozilla and solution is to use local web server for end user or other workaround which is bad idea when browser don't want local files for security or other reasons.

solution may be running itch --appname but this seems broken.
