New luxtorpeda-dev Client Release (Version 63)
3 projects | /r/linux_gaming | 20 Apr 2023

Switch to using Steam Linux Runtime - Sniper for the built engines. This provides newer tooling for builds, which should make future development easier, for example being able to build qt 5.15 and have gcc 10 available. The 100+ engines have been re-built. Note that previous clients should still work on the older soldier, but any new updates will only happen to sniper (this client and above). If you run into any issues with the engines, please open a new issue in the packages repo.

What happened here is the Luxtorpeda is now allowing normal ScummVM to launch this game (this commit). I think before you needed the separate Roberta layer to do this.
