1. In the properties, check "Force the use of a specific Steam Play compatibility tool" then choose Proton 7.0-6.
2. In the game configuration, use the Direct3D renderer, check "Run Fullscreen", and set the resolution slider to "800x600 - 32bit".
3. To fix the music, use ProtonTricks to install DirectMusic into the game's prefix.

The game will only run in Game Mode.

Hi. If it still actual problem you need to install Protontricks using the guide: https://github.com/Matalus/steamdeck-tips/blob/main/wiki/protontricks.md
Then open console and run next comand: protontricks 6900 directmusic.
