Caveblazers recurring starting problem
Log https://0x0.st/8Sjk.log
The game mostly starts up fine, but perhaps a few percent of the attempts it fails, similar to this.
I haven't figured out if the startup problem causes it to never start or to just take a prohibitively long time. This time I heard a sound from the game played while the game window with its plain black contents was open. Heroic–bundled wine-ge was used.

Wine-GE is rather old now (last release is almost a year ago) and thus might not work correctly. Please follow these instructions on using GE-Proton:
1. Head to the Wine Manager in Heroic, click the "Proton-GE" tab, and install "Proton-GE-Latest"
2. Head to the settings for your game(s) (icon on game card in library). In the "Wine Version" dropdown, select "Proton - Proton-GE-latest"
3. Rename your Wineprefix (path is shown in game settings), e.g. from
current-name to current-name_bak. To clarify: Rename the actual folder on your hard drive, do not change the option in the game settings.
Note: This will make game-specific configuration data (e.g. in-game settings or save files) unavailable. If this is an issue, let us know & we'll help you restore them.
