I've finally released the big update.
SoRR v5.2 and v5.1 in one easy package.
OpenGL GPU acceleration.
Shader support.
The installation of the entire thing requires like 2 extra steps now (couldn't include the OpenGL wrapper in the flatpak, unfortunately), but I've kept it nice and easy.
Due to a lack of testers, I can only guarantee that it works on Fedora and Ubuntu (+ Ubuntu-based derivatives). It should work on most distributions, though you might have to dig around a bit to get the proper package names for all dependencies.
Nintendo Switch port is semi-cancelled. As in it's technically finished, but building it takes absolutely ages and from what I can tell they don't actually care.
- Why it took so long:
I hate to admit it, but whilst the wrapper itself is deceptively simple and sloppily put together, it doesn't reflect the amount of time I spent browsing X11 documentation and debugging obscure bugs to finally get to it in this state. Combined with a tame community response and a lack of testers, the prospect of putting even more time in this project just to write better documentation, to clean up code or to polish the installation procedure, was off-putting.
However, I can't just sit on this like I'm some spoiled dragon from a certain fantasy series. Bomberlink didn't just sit on his work either. He shared it, and so must I.
Sorry it took so long.
Is the Switch version canned? I'd like to volunteer as a tester if it's still on the table.

Thanks a lot for the Linux port, I'm enjoying the shaders

As a sidenote, I managed to add the game to Steam through Lutris, could be useful for Steam Deck users
