I’m trying to play Rain World with a friend, but steam remote play doesn’t seem to be working. I’ve managed to play online with friends on other games, though I dont thing those would have been using Steam Remote Play. Whenever I right click my friend’s steam name and click “invite to play” or whatever its called, it does nothing. I can invite him to watch me play, and watch him play, but the invite to play doesn’t work. Clicking his invites also does nothing, regardless of whether the game is open or closed. I have played Rain World with my friend when I was still using windows, and I’m wondering if this is just a linux problem. Has anyone encountered the same problem? Does anyone know how to fix this?
You’ve tried one gaming community and one general technology community. My guess is that a low percentage of people on either are going to be playing this game and particularly playing it on Linux. I think that I’d have asked !linux_gaming@lemmy.world if you don’t want to use the Steam support forum for the game, which is what I’d have tried first.
ProtonDB has multiple reports that multiplayer does work with this game on Linux:
First off you should take this to !linux_gaming@lemmy.world like @tal@lemmy.today said
Can’t say I’ve ever tried to use “remote play together” with a game through proton. Does RPT work for you on other games? And what version of proton are you on?
