Not sure if anyone still visits this post, but If you have controllers hooked up, and you aren’t player one, you cannot create a save file. I was struggling with this issue then realized my remote was played two, when I switched to first it was fine. Playing on switch version, but I feel like this would still work if you have any controllers set up.

My game screen looks like this (image 2020-06-26 22-09.jpg). Freshly installed game. There is no sound in the game either. The linux mint 19.3 system. An older version of the game was working better.

same here when I installed the first time it loaded past this screen and I was at the main menu but there was no sound and today I tried again and it wont even get past the loading screen at the start just like you and I still have no sound not even in the intro of the game.
I also have Linux Mint 19.3

I was told by support to simply reinstall and to contact their support email

the game now works on linux mint, both the sound issue and the stuck on loading screen issue have been resolved, please see this gog forums:

I just installed on Debian bullseye and got the same error.

The libSDL2-2.0.so.0 is too short because it is some kind of weird wannabe symlink file: A regular file that contains !<symlink> and then some extra bytes and target of the symlink perhaps utf-16 encoded or something.

The game worked for me after replacing the file with a real symlink.

This is just a wild guess, but could the installer have a problem recognising the file system I'm installing on? I'm using btrfs. What if the installer guessed wrong that the file system doesn't support symlinks and writes regular files instead.
